LFS had great sale today and me and DD stopped to browse..they have aquarium plants and I noticed one that was banana shaped...the poster on the wall said it was in the nymphea family...Isn't that the lily family? Is it just a mini form for a lily? The leaves looked similar..

Would it work in a pond or would it get lost?

I've had banana plants in the past.. I have no idea if they are "related" to lilies... they don't grow big... in an aquarium anyways.

Pay attention Jackie...NYMPHEA? I don't know how to spell it... :D

OK Terri, they are probably meant for the aquarium, I was just wondering if it would work in a pond, if anyone had tried it...was just a tiny little thing...I didn't buy it till I learn more about it..

If you people can't take a joke!!!

Busy, I'm not sure how well it would do in such a short season as you have...
