finally water hyacinth!

Finally got some decent water hyacinth
here locally. One of my ponding friends
picked me up some yesterday. She stopped
by to visit the new turtle and the new
turtle came out to be charming. I told my
15-yr-old son to name her and he came up
with Lily. So now Lily, a painted turtle,
has joined the pond family. (And will probably
eat all the new water hyacinths by week's
end ;-)
