At last count we had sixteen in and around the pond.

All new plants are potted and daylilies are blooming.

Some more pictures

We has a flower (water hyacinth).

Update

Plan B on the prowl through the reeds:

We bought new water plants, which have to be properly potted up now:

Things growing

The reeds and rushes are coming back nicely, the daylilies are a good 10 inches high, and I started planting the berm. There’s a new bleeding heart (alba) and two nice ferns. Alas, alas, I can’t take any pics, cause the camera broke.

This morning the pond was gone.

Ice over

We installed a bubbler to keep the fishes supplied with oxygen, but the hole is closing quickly.

Mo’ fish

We added two more comets to bring the number back up to three: Agent Orange, who has beautiful black markings on his fins, and Plan B, the orange and white one.
