Default Pond project update (or lack of)

Can anyone suggest any plants that I could introduce this late in the

Lillies, pickerel, parrot's feather, and lizard's tounge. Just make sure the
roots are well below freezing level. Gareee



And usually this is a great time to purchase, everything will be on
clearance/sale at the garden shops. Let us know what you find. ~ jan

Do you think that I would need to run a filter/UV on it this winter or
could I leave it until the spring? I know I'm going to have to get a
filter but I have a few indoor projects as well so if I can get away
with not it would be good......however, as the pond project is one close
to my heart if the concensus is that I need a filter running from the
off I will do it and my luminaire for my 4 foot tropical can wait.....
