Hopefully Spring will get here soon and many will post their pond pictures. We have newly planted Cannas and Caladiums bulbs.. Hope they come up nicely!! .. :)

Ferns have been a problem keeping alive.. Guess it could be weak soil... :scratch:
 
I would love to see pond pictures, too. All I have is a marsh, but here it is:

Well...LOL. Its not THAT cold here, but you get the picture. :p

Might as well tease you, here in SE Michigan it was 70*F today! I loved it!! :D







...and then I get the call from home saying that it was 84 degrees today and they had the AC on! :rolleyes:
 
125g "ferns"

Try miracid,
Most ferns come from environments with acidic soil and if you treat them like an azalea they should do fine. Also compost or manure tea should give them a really good boost in the Spring. You could also use a pin straw mulch that will really help them out as well.

Thanks, I will check into that!
 
Pond Pictures

This pond is a little bigger than what I have in my backyard but we're still proud of it. This is a 3 acre pond we constructed in the Eastern Townships of Quebec, Canada. I might never make the kind of money the people paid us to build it have but it was a fun project. :) The top four pictures are the fall work in progress and the bottom picture is once spring starts to get the water level up.
