Joe, Thanks! I sure hope if fills in nicely, as that's the plan! I don't plan on a pond, though, as I don't even have enough room in there for all my sars....I don't want to limmit myself. If I run into some hardy pings or utics by chance, I'll surely put them in. I don't really plan on hunting for them, though, as those two genus aren't really my thing. I don't know where you think you see spatulata (no "h", by the way, that's the nep)...There are some very small VFT's are in there, maybe that's what you're looking at...[b said:Quote[/b] ]Sweet, that's going to be quite the looker once it fills in. Are you going to add any other genera, or build a little pond in it? I think some Utrics would make a nice ground cover in between the spathulata, or maybe some hardy Pings. I wish I had a yard...
[b said:Quote[/b] ]One other thing you might consider is driving a 2 inch diameter piece of black PVC pipe with a fine screen on the bottom of it down to the bottom so that you have a sort of sight glass to look down and check the water level. It also makes a convenient place to water the bog, so you are not displacing the media. You could also use it to pull water out with a syphon in the event of heavy rains to prevent the bog from overly flooding.
AH HA! Thanks...[b said:Quote[/b] (zappafan @ July 12 2005,1:08)]LFS is Long Fibered Sphagnum.
