I came home to wet ground around my pond 🙁 It turns out that the water level had risen above the liner in several places. While I investigated, I realized I had too many plants in the pond. I started pulling out hyacinths and iris. This allowed the water to flow better and not dam up.
I need to check these things at least once a week during the summer because things are growing so fast. The 1st clue should be they are blooming. Once they start blooming it’s a sign that they are getting confined. Confinment usually means damming of the water.
I probably pulled out over 100 plants so far. If anyone needs plants, please contact me. Some of these cost $4 each at the nursery. So that’s like $400 worth of plants. I only wish I could sell them back.
