.View attachment 11These are the 3 adults I decided to keep in the one pond. I also kept a small orange ginrin butterfly as well as Wentworth Blue, my rescue fish. I will probably keep a couple of the others but for now, they are in the holding tank. I did have a 3" dark koi escape back to the pond.

Was surprised to see the first lily opened (wanvisa) and the first pond iris! We have not been home enough to even know a bud was around.

My pound today... man it's been hot here in Indiana.. might get rain this week from the tropical storm down south. Hope it doesn't fizzle out too much before it gets here... poor garden and pond... but the Colorado lilly putting out a triple today...iris in bloom and Cardinal plant really growing.. lots of green plants growing in and around the pond. Need a few more plants for the filter to fill it in but overall coming together nicely.

Our little hot tub pond, pea green to begin with. There are lilies in there.

I added a tiny pump in the lower corner. Now look at it.

All the pots have fertilizer in them. The lilies are growing great. I need to get some fantails.
