And there are several other areas I did not photograph.

AAGC is a must visit when ponders are in New Orleans.

Here are a few pics I took of the big pond there last year, Magoo is right, If you ever get to New Orleans, this is a must stop plave to walk through if your a ponder!

Looking at the two you can really see the changes!

In Magoo's 2nd photo. It doesn't look like lotus. Is that a mounding lily of some sort? Any idea what kind it is?

KO,

That's N. 'Wanvisa' , 2010 winner for best new hybrid water lily at IWGS competion. The 1st hardy to win that award. It beat all the showy dayblooming tropicals.

Dr Dave , The forum software displayed a message that the software has a limit of 20 embedded photos. It was my intent to post two threads. Is there a way to override to 20 photo and icom limit?

You can put as many as you want, if you put your photos on photo bucket first and just post the link. I was not aware there was a 20 photo limit. Some of my threads must be getting close lol

Very nice photos btw, thanks
