We've had our pond for almost 8 yrs. It's app. 600 gal. and in our backyard close to our bedroom window. We live in N. Fla. Right now it's covered with netting as we have tons of leaves that are falling. We had a sprinkling of snow last week with highs in the 70s this week. The hostas that are submergibles have frozen. Mid-Feb. i s the time to begin this year's pond.

Great looking pond, and I'm sure your hostas will recover. Mine die back in winter frosts every year, but shoot again in the spring.
I told a lady at our local nursery that hostas did well as marginals. She really didn't believe me. :~)

Thanks to all of you for the Welcome. The pond looks really sad now. We'll be getting down in the 20's again. Crazy, crazy Fla. weather. I had some relatives come from W.Va (8" of snow there) for their first visit to Fla. That's when it snowed here. :~/
