Well I worked last night until 11 on the pond and the end result was
that the plants were decent after cutting off a lot of injured stems.
I lost my lillies and another cool plant but I hope that they will both
come back from the roots. I am thinking about using a motion activated
sprinkler, right now the pond is all barricaded and I played a radio
there all night. I put a lot of cuttings in water hoping that the will
root, I have nothing to lose except the few seconds it took to put them
in water.
I really appreciate all of your help on this.

Thank you very much,
James
