No floating planter for me.

::sigh::

Today Tabby came over to pick me up, and we went to the back room so she could peek at the pond and see my new, small, floating planter. We went to the door, and it wasn't there! I thought "Where is it?" and then saw it pip up to the surface.

Al had turned it over, pulled out all the plants, and then let it go, whereupon it righted itself, just in time for me to see it happen. Little bastard.

I ran out, yelled at him, and then put the plants back into the pot as best I could... then I brought it into the house.

I think what I will have to do is set the plant, with some fish, in a bucket of water, and weigh it with rocks so it will get taller... when it's tall enough I'll put it in the bottom of the pond, in a basket. I hope that when the leaves are big and strong like Tabby's he won't eat the plant. I really love this plant and would like to have one in my pond.

pond, al
