pot! Jim |

JDS, I have 3 of those same pots! And I totally forgot what I do to stop stagnation. Okay... one does have a pump with spitter... because I just can't leave a quiet pool alone I guess. roll eyes But the other 2... DS has all 3 hooked to drip system, when sprinklers come on they overflow a bit every other day. I have used baby goldfish in the past, tadpoles last year... and this year, some of the straight tailed wakins will go in them for skeeter control. Yours looks very cute! I put irises from the koi pond in mine, along with floating islands of water cress & creeping jenny, and a canna I've conditioned to water. Between 2 of them I have a bench seat that sits on the edge of them. ~ jan ------------ Zone 7a, SE Washington State Ponds: www.jjspond.us |

Hal Zone 8 Middle Georgia http://s209.photobucket.com/albums/bb81/Hal035/ Hal, your yard is so gorgeous... but... I don't know, seems wife needs an upgrade on her musical pond container. ;-) It is a nice pretty bright white though. Maybe the grandkids could draw some flowers on it? ~ jan ------------ Zone 7a, SE Washington State Ponds: www.jjspond.us |

LOL very interesting!
I think 9" would be too big for my little pot. But I may try sometime. Anything smaller out there? "~ jan" wrote in message ... On Sun, 21 Jun 2009 09:24:00 EDT, "JDS" wrote: Cool.
