Beautiful Arum Lilies there Marley.  Mine are planted as a marginal in the pond and they are only just in flower.  Such an elegant flower :)

Marley Farley..Beautiful. Question from very novice gardener.. are yours early or are mine very later or is it the variety? I know mine are not Arum but novice that I am I don't know what mine are, were given to me by my daughter from her garden when she moved. Lorna.

:) Hi lorna, No yours are not late, for some reason one clump started early, they were very sheltered, but they always are, not flowered early like that before :)  since then the rest have started so it has been continuous. I do feed when they are flowering with tom fertilizer ;D

mimi u can buy aquatic feed tablets that u just push into the soil and it will feed the plant and not the blanket  weed, i find the tablet form best u can buy liquid feed for pond plants but i think it makes the blanket weed grow even faster

:) Yes I agree tablets for marginal plants & yes I feed  the rest on a weekly basis when they are flowering ;D
