Hey guys...
Just thought I'd share this, this is a shot of one of our water hyacinths that flowered this year.  We've had water hyacinths for 8 years now and not one has ever flowered, this year we have 3 flowering.

Wow that is beautiful.  What is the difference....what was done different  this year to other years? 

Really nice thank yo for this view!

We did change our pond, we went from a smaller 200 gallon pond to a 3400 gallon pond with a biological filter.  I know the fish have appreciated it, but I didn't realize the plants would as well.  =)

Love it!   

I will be working on a pond in the next couple of weeks,,,major expense will be the pump.  But I will keep the space in mind as well. 

These are lovely!

A good rule of thumb is you want to match how many gallons your pond is.  So if your pond is 200 gallons you want a pump that will move 200 gallons per hour.  That will help a lot with water quality and clarity.  Our water is pretty close to crystal clear.

Thank you for that... Not sure how big it will be yet...depends on my digging ability!
