Hi all!
I'm looking for some water lettuce and parrots feather. Any one
thinning out their growth yet? Everything dies here in Colorado
Springs during the winter (except water celery) so I have to 're
plant' my veggie filter and bio-mech filters if I want hyacinths,
lettuce, and duck weed. I have Pay Pal for convenience if you like.

Thanks!
W Dale

There are great deals on E-bay for pond plants especially if you live in
the USA. Being from Canada I had a hard time finding someone that would
ship across border.

I did find someone though.

Ahem. It's generally illegal to import plants into Canada...

I can send you some parrots feather and hyacinths.
Hmm, I don't have any water celery. Do I want that?
I'm in OKlahoma, have a greenhouse for wintering over and everything is
doing grand in my pond.
Email me an address.

Dale,

I have hyacinth, lettuce and parrots feather...with some small amount
of duckweed around them. Let me know if you want some.

I know ......but the E-bay sellers have been so gracious to
risk penalty to make a few bucks.

I'm not sure they're risking any penalties. Unless they're shipping
something that would be illegal inter-state. Even if they're technically
guilty of something for sending it to you, nobody's getting extradited for
sending you pond plants. I'm pretty sure the risk's all on you.

Hi Jim,
Did you receive my most recent emails to you?
have a great rest of the week! And guess what? I am actually going
to put my pond on the pond tour here in the Springs this year! What
HAVE I gotten myself into???? My two neighbors are going to be on the
tour as well so visitors will have three very different ponds to see
within 1/2 block.

Dale
