John,

My water celery has water cascading right into the middle of it. I use it
like an inpond bog filter. By July the water celery has formed a ball of
green about 3 feet in diameter. My iris are right next to a cascade and
have done fine. Last year my water movement was about 2,900 gph and this
year it should be about 4,000 gph. Does seem to bother either plant.

Hi John,

I also have not problems with water celery in
the waters spill, I don't know about iris. Mine
are in the bog.
Cattails can jump a pot. Mine jumped the first
pot, but just hung over the side of the pot. I
found it and then repotted in a dishpan also. It
has not needed to be repotted since, but I may in
the future.
