Default Bullrushes

I think you might be right there judging by the height. However I will take
some photos and put a link up and perhaps you could confirm

With regards to the Chinese and Indian crews, have to agree. I had a tour
way down below decks on a recent cruise, (not what you know but who you
know) and met some of those, especially Chinese, working 'out of sight'.
They were so pleased to 'be appreciated' and beamed from ear to ear when I
took photos of them. I spent quite some time on the Bridge as well when we
went up a Norwegian Fjord to Olden and the Indian crew there were great.
Again not many public get there and again they appreciate, appreciation in
what they are doing. Stewards and Dining Staff are generally Indian or
Phillipino and of course you meet them all the time

When is the best time to thin out and transplant Bullrushes?


Now with plenty of water in a container or when they have died back?


As far as I know all water plants are best dealt with when growing
apace,
unlike normal plants.
