That would be a good idea for the next frog bog
but alas nothing short of a stick of dynamite will
budge the cattails in there now.
================================
I planted the plants in gravel in my first pond. Never again! What a job
getting them out without ripping or puncturing the liner. Everything goes
in pots now. If I turn the kiddypool into a frogbog I will plant the
Lotus
right in soil, cover that will gravel and let it go wild.

My iris are in pots in the VF. This past fall I took them out to sink them
in the pond. They were one large mass. The roots lept from the pots, and
joined each other. There was little help provided by the pots. Massive
plants. I have lots of splitting to do this year.
