I may have some hyacinth after all....also lily question.
Today I went out and removed the screens from the pond, cleaned up
debri, and added 2 small statues; a frog and a turtle. I could see the very bottom of the pond. I saw no gold fish, but i didn't disturb the water. Some know i just put in this pond in aug/sept. I have a lilly plant that had 3 big leaves. I sank it 5 months ago and the leaves and stems look quite dead to me. HOWEVER! The pot has 4 baby leaves in it! (Doing my happy dance) Do i raise the pot back up from nearly 2 feet, or leave it on the bottom? Also, i tried to over winter hyacinth. I kept some inside and they died. I left some floating and they are rotten and will be removed when i am ready to disturb the fish, and i sank and tied down a couple. The ones i sank have green on them!!!! I was shocked! Anyone else have fun today? (Mind you i live in a crazy place. We had 2 days of spring, 2 days of winter, now 2 days of spring, and back to winter monday) zone 7A ·.·´¨ ¨)) -:¦:- ¸.·´ .·´¨¨)) jammer ((¸¸.·´ ..·´ -:¦:- ((¸¸ |

The green on your hyacinths is great news. You might check out the ones
that stayed on top as well. Ours typically have dead leaves but mostly live cores. We strip off the dead leaves and get a lot of new growth. Some, however, are dead and rotten. Here in the Jackson area we are beginning to see some new growth on the water celery, mint and watercress. Spring is coming!
