I have a pink waterlily that is going to soon take over the pond, so it will have to come out, you will need a very big space as I think it's going to get huge. Or you're quite welcome to a piece of the root as a start

What a shame I haven't got a pond, Grindle. That's a beauty! Seaburn has a pond - I wonder if she'd like it?

Id have a bit of the root but i think it would be too big for our little pool , It is too pretty to throw it out .

I just helped my brother take a white one out of his pond, they are similar to ice burges, three quaters of them are underwater. We cut it up and it filled the wheelbarrow three times.

I hope someone has some of your waterlilies because they are very expensive.

I know what you mean by an iceburg, well it looks like it will end up on the tip, I can't leave it in there, it will take over eventually. It was my fault for not getting a named one like the others I have, it was just a Focus 'special' so I got what I paid for

it is I agree Floydie, but I have others in there that are getting crowded out and as they were presents from my son I would hate to lose them

Seaburn will be back very soon. Hang on until she tells you if she can put it in her pond...
