Hi guys,
I have a small patio raised pond holding about 200 gallons,nothing spectacular but really nice to sit around on a nice summers day,only 6 small goldfish but loads of marginals and two of the pygmy type lillies and all are thriving.
I also have some oxygenating plants and two Water Lettuce plants both of which have baby plants growing off them,the fish love chasing through the long hanging roots and they're a real asset to the look of the pond.
I know that these plants will not do well in the winter months and I was wondering if there's any way of overwintering them, I have a plastic mini greenhouse and maybe a shallow container of water to keep their roots moist might keep them alive during the winter months,any guys got any ideas?
