I live in zone 5. My pond is about 500 gal. roughly. The main plant I was
wanting to over-winter were the hyacinths. the potted plants I was going to
trim back and put them in the deep part of the pond which is about 32 in.

Has anyone had much luck over-wintering plants. This will be my first
winter as a pond owner and I was wanting to try it out. How should I do
it.
Just put them in a container with some water from the pond and give them
light? Will artificial light, such as a florescent fixture, be o.k. Do I
still fertilize as often or not?
