Pond Plants

I ordered some new ponds plants and hessian cloth on e-bay, and they turned up last weekend. Due to the cold weather (and the pond being frozen!), I kept these inside for the last few days.

Over the past few evenings, some careful sewing has turned the hessian squares into pocket size plant containers that fit neatly round the ledge of the pond. I've now planted these up, and last night the little plants actually made it to the pond.

They still look a little bit weedy, but hopefully these will grow and provide some shelter for the tadpoles that will no doubt arrive in due course.
