Late thought - If anybody is in the market for the emerse Crinums, Crinum americanum, AKA Florida Swamp Lilt, do speak up and I'll bing them.

Suitable for deck/patio/balcony planters bog or shallow water with good light. Elegant and highly fragrant flowers.

Other Jeff: I do require lots of space for books, lots of water and space for tanks, single-malt, and very good chocolate. I am allergic to cats, but only mildly. Much better with Basset hounds.

Robert, I'll try a Crinum in my pond this year. Let me know if you'd like anything in return for it. :-)

what about a cat dog (cat swears it is a dog and will follow you around)?

free water here (condo fee pays for water), space for tanks is an issue but can be remedied with 2x4's

OK, That is tree big clumps, which are what I have to move out. They could be subdivided. I may break off a bulb to try on the deck myself.
