I'll wait on the cattails, they arent the kind of fishable cover im looking for anyway, they were more of a "look/beauty" idea than anything. The lilies im going to do, just choosing the right strains, is my next battle. What kinds are featured in the pictures you posted RAH? Those look great!

I dont understand cattails, some places ive been they seem to stay where they were put. Others they are all over. Probably monthly pluckings get that done. I just had them in mind for being right next to the bank behind the lilies after the lilies were established., for a sort of back drop look. Maybe im thinking too much like a bob ross painting here.
