Thanks Joe, I'm glad to hear they grow well for you in a higher pH
than I have. Now I'm still looking for the reason they don't grow
well in my pond. I have a good fish load, my filter is barely
keeping up and I don't know......

If they're in the pond with fish, who love to eat their roots, that could
be a cause. Doesn't solve mine, as none are in with fish.

I can't even get them healthy with miracle grow. :-( (Is that what you
used?)

I have some in a half barrel that have grown into a large bouquet and
today they are blooming sporadically, you know a couple here and
there, but they make such a sight this is my second year doing this.

At least you've got them growing somewhere. :-) ~ jan
