I have ponds in my greenhouse--for the tropical lilies. Time to recover the dome, I think. Not looking forward to that.

I too would like a pond forum. I am active in other pond forums.

I have already emailed Dave to see if it was ok to add a couple of moderators as I don't the time to fully moderate the heuchera forum like it should be done, nor does Chris, my co admin.

I would be interested in moderating the pond forum as well, but again, I would need a couple of people to help as my time is not what I would like it to be to do this. Perhaps somebody could moderate and I could be put on as an administrator? Paul - you could moderate and I could help.

Trish - your thoughts?

I keep a pond during the Summer and overwinter the fish along with my Orchids etc in my greenhouse. Yes, it would be nice to post into a new pond forum, especially during the outdoor months here in NJ.

A water gardening forum would be great! That would cover ponds, containers, and bogs!

Come on folks! We need at least 5 people to get this forum!

I agree I'd love to see a water gardening forum too -- something I've never attempted because I don't know enough about how to go about it!

Oh, wonderful! Thank you so much Trish and Dave and nice people willing to moderate. I'm so new to ponding (though I think NOW I have a handle on it) that I feel I still have a lot to learn. My first water lily bloomed today! I was so pleasantly surprised - didn't see it coming. Yay!!!

Ponds and greenhouses - and a pond in a greenhouse ~ it doesn't get any better.....
