Im so excited my creeping Jenny not only thrived outdoors all winter, but has also just flowered !! I was so surprised ! it didn't flower last year . I haven't put any fish into the pond yet, but its looking good this year for its 3rd season.
I just have to say as I'm sitting in bed on my laptop, with my two dogs, all I could think about was how lovely your yard and deck look! Nice shade, trees flowing in the breeze and the birds chirping, I bet I could sit there all day !
Keep up the great work ! And I hope you take some time to sit and enjoy it all !
My deck is my happy place this time of year!
Rachel O'Leary I bet ! ❤️🌸🐟🌱
Great information, wish I had found your channel sooner.
Looks like someone has a we bit of a tan...😄. I will be sharing this vid with a special person who built her own pond.
Your tub vids have been a great resource for her lately...Thanks Rachel, you're exactly what she needs right now. 😊. Have a great evening Rachel, and Thanks again. 👍👍👍
I got FRIED mowing. With spf 60, lol
@@RachelOLeary 😲😲Lordy Rachel!!! 🙃😂
You rock. Love watching you do this. Like I’m planting too virtually. And learning a lot.
Upgraded to a 50 gal this year. Added gold WCM minnows. See a lot of breeding action. Fingers crossed for a lot of fry to survive 🤞
This was so relaxing to watch 💜🌿💜
Your yard is really green now
Thank you Rachel! I love to see your videos! You are creating a little paradise!
With living in a condominium that does not have outdoor space I have to live vicariously through you and your awesome tub’s. I could watch your tubbing videos all day and never get bored.
Thanks darryl!
Always love your videos!!
I love all of your videos Rachel. Thanks for sharing.
I'm transplanting my hosta from my old house to my new one ....I hope I don't kill them....your tubs look amazing as always 💜💜
I doubt you will, they are pretty darn hardy. I should know...I tried killing mine multiple times and they just kept coming back, and tmultipled to boot! LOL
Congrats on the fry already out in the bins that's awesome. Keep up the great work. Love everything you do. Very inspirational women. Thank you for sharing as always.
beautiful start to the season! Stay safe!!
hYgrophila are also a marginal plant but can get 4-6 feet high or higher depending on the species. It has lovely tiny translucent purple flowers.

I ordered two of the floating planters. Thanks for the link!
the big boys are looking good
You answered several of the questions I had. Thanks!
Amazing video...i love your work mam...u r so nice
I love seeing the plant combos, they give me ideas for my own pots. What are the tall thin plants that you potted at around 15:40? Thanks for the videos, I always look forward to them.
This is so helpful, I created a mini pond with rice fish on my deck. I have been wondering how best to do potted plants. Thank you!
I’ve ordered the Green Maiden lotus, too, but I’m still waiting on mine. It’s been three weeks, so fingers crossed, it comes soon. Thanks for the great video!
Love your videos and how informative they are. Keep creating :))
Thanks mark!

I have a 20 gallon round tub for putting in a wooden barrel. it was in one and I did water gardens for a few seasons, but I separated it and the wooden barrel is just soil and wildflowers now. I still have the tub, I was using it to catch rain water for carnivorous plants, but I want to properly fill it up again and do a pond. I have 3 Sarracenia on the way, someone offered them up for sale in a group I'm in online for 20 bucks shipped. Really good deal. So either floating carnivorous planter or bog garden, I think.
Looking to build a 180 gal pond (actually have all the materials ready and we’re building it now for our three fish - koi, shebunkin (sp?) and a regular goldfish) and I was interested to see how to plant the plants in the pond... this was super helpful - thank you so much!!! Ps love creeping Jenny LOL
Nice job on the tubs. Im hoping my first attempt looks half as well - lol
So glad you did this video I want to do pot plants so badly. I’m so bad with killing plants but love plants so much.
You make me feel I can do it as you make things so easy.
You can, i promise!!
Rachel O'Leary - thank you Rachel.
The best part about pond plants is that you can’t forget to water them 🤗!
Great video! Watched it a few times. When using the floating planters, what is the bottom part that floats in the water made of? Is it porous so the roots stay moist? And why did you then put it in an aquatic basket? Thank you for patience with my questions... I'm a beginner at this!
The floating planters are mesh, so those I just plant as they are. The plastic baskets that I put in various levels of the tubs I line woth paper so that the soil doesn't leak out. Hope that helps!
you look great today
I enjoyed watching you video ! I am changing my Swimming pool, to a Talipi pond ! I just finished making a FLOOTING ISLAND ! so I have to put Pool Noodles or ? So , because it's soo deep, everything has to floot !! I need to cover 1/3 of the pool , I have read, for it to be Successful !!
Have you ever done anything similar ! It seems there are a lot of people who are tired of all the Chemicals they have to add, plus the cost ! And sence I do not swim, its perfect for me !! Any tips !! Maybe you could do something like this ? Thank you for your time !!
Hi Rachel, where do you get the rectangular tubs like the one that starts at 14:52?
I’ve been thinking about setting up a small tub with some of the wild wetland plants by my home in coastal SC.
Been collecting small portions of those in no danger of depletion and propagating them for inside use, and there’s no risk of the plants getting loose into the local ecosystem.
Have you tried swamp milkweed
In a pond?
How do you overwinter your pitcher plants floating? I just planted some and I get really cold winters.
Informative and interesting. Greetings from the Western prairies of Canada. It's my first year with a fish pond (750 g). Today I finally got to a place that sells water lilies. They had a bunch of other pond plants so I was like a kid in a candy store. Due to high winds and on & off rain, I didn't get a chance to repot them yet. In fact the winds knocked over some of my marginal plants and all their pea gravel top layer is lost in the depths. The hardy water lily is submerged in about 3 feet of water. Is that too deep? I could sink down some bricks to sit it on if it is. Anyway, I really enjoyed your video and will continue watching.
I'm not sure where you're from but you've got a great backyard.
It's hard to go wrong planting a lotus. I love the way the foliage stands proud of the water and collects little droplets of water, and the blooms are just so extra. Wait, didn't you visit a place with like a zillion lotus last summer?
I did! Kenilworth gardens
Ooo I want a lotus too lol. Can you overwinter them like lillies?
Yea, but i think I will have to move them into the basement or refrigerate the tuber. Will keep you posted as i learn more!
Rachel O'Leary hmmm that would work for me. I keep my lillies under my basement stairs over winter
Rachel,are those stock ponds?Love the lay out.
Some are Rubbermaid stock ponds, some are laguna
Rachel O'Leary I live in Saint Aug Fl.I have a Tractor supply near me,ill checkthem out.
How are the big boys?
Awesome video & advice 👍👍👍👍
Can i use the same potting soil capped with sand or gravel for fully submerged aquatic plants like jungle val or tea plants?
Thx for sharing 👏👏👏👏
Yes absolutely
@@RachelOLeary
Awesome thank you.
What do you use as fertilizer for them?
Root tabs
@@RachelOLeary
Thank you.
Do you still have your Carnivorous plants and do you sell them?
I don't sell them, sorry
10:14 Looks like a Calla Lily not Canna Lily
Hi, l have found your UTube channel very informative, visually enjoyable and deepens my knowledge of eco systems and biological balance in aquarium keeping.
I would like to ask if Indian Almond leaves can also be beneficial for Lake Tanganikan cichlids (cyprochromis) ? Anti bacterial and I have heard it kills internal parasites. I would like to hear from you, Tx
As a clear, hard water fish, I dont think it would be of much benefit to them long term, but probably would not be of detriment
@@RachelOLeary thank you for your reply, I have watched documentaries on Lake Tanganika and the lake is fed by rivers and streams, also has vegetation along the shores, so Almond leaves, could aid in lessening bacteria , as long as it's only 1/2 leaves dependent on tank size 👍
When I pot pond plants with koi, I always put larger stones on top to prevent the fish from rooting up the plants and keep the water clean. I also raise my pots near the surface so the fish can’t access tender shoots. Just some helpful tips for ones with naughty fish!!
I made a video on it if interested.
Putting in my first big summer tub I went from a 20 gallon up to 150 gallon wish me luck! I’m doing it just for one 8 inch swim bladder challenged white long thin goldfish need some place to swim and stretch out and have lots of plants to sleep in because he can’t control where he sleeps because of his swim bladder issues bless his heart
I used to have that swim bladder problem with fancy goldfish. I was told it was probably from a couple of things... too many pellets and not enough roughage (like Romaine lettuce which all mine get now) and/or eating from the surface of the water and gulping too much air. I now feed my goldfish mostly repashy and that has really helped to eliminate any swim bladder issues I used to have. Good luck with yours! xo
Thank you for always sharing...❤️ Much love Rachel!!🐟🌱🌿
I love pickerel weed. They have such nice flower spikes.
Really interesting! Love it.
Thanks!
I love the paper in the basket idea. I will try that!
Love the videos there super helpful
Hi Rachel! Don't know if you still get notifications on old videos, but...I'm doing a summer tub for 1st time with things I have mostly. Clean black plastic bin, prob 30 gal or so. Excited to try. After rewatching this vid I realize a) I should repot the 3 plants I did purchase and b) don't have more aquatic soil. Do you think I can i use a mix of organic potting soil and part of a large coconut coir slab (15x15 x ~2)? They will be in 2 of those plastic woven baskets zip tied to edge. Thanks!!
Should be fine!
@@RachelOLeary Oh great thanks for the answer! Enjoy the rest of the Spring setup :)
Rachel - Will mosquito dunks kill dragonfly larvae in tubs? How do I protect shrimp outside from the dragonfly devils?
Thanks for sharing Rachel. Looks great!! I'm looking forward to your next summer outdoor plants video.
Rachel, I have a new pond I filled with well water. Can I add plants right away or should I let the water age? My water is mineral rich. Great video! ❤️
I add plants right away
Rachel O'Leary , awesome! Thank you!
Ugh. I wish I lived in your climate. I live in Maine and there are so many plants I can’t get away with. I’m like zone 5 and 6 only up here. We only have like a two and a half month growing season here.
at 9:03 you might try cheese cloth, no ink to contaminate. so glad that you are posting , you make my day. wish you lived next door LOL.
Great looking plants and tubs. I enjoy watching your content, thank you.
I’m glad I’m not the only one who still doesn’t have all their pond plants out yet lol. Slow year. Hopefully fall will hold off so I can enjoy the lily pads longer 😂 I *almost* got a dwarf lotus this year but I held off. Just a little too pricy for me as a pond noob. I’ll get my paws on one someday!
Love them, all of the tubs look great! I like to use a long bread knife to cut apart root bound plants to divide, they bounce back just fine.
Thank you so much for your amazing ideas
Stay safe and nice work!!
Great video Rachel!!!
Love your videos. Keep 'em coming!
Well-done!!
You're a God send to us 😊
Is any of this safe for fish
All of it
Rachel O'Leary thanks. I really appreciate you taking the time to answer my question.
@@angs8068 any time!
As always love your informative videos! QUESTION...do you repot the pond plants after the winter?
Only if they need to be split. This year i couldn't because i didn't have materials so next year I probably will
Oh my shit lady is this your deck???? Holy Toledo I just love you!! You really just amaze me with every video!
Yep!
I learned so much from this one video. Now I want to watch all your vids. Thanks Rachel!
So glad it was helpful!
Pennywort = Creeping Jenny. Same species.
Yes
It's been hot recently, stay safe working outside and in the greenhouse :)
I get up early to do the greenhouse, then go into sloth mode, then work again in the evenings lol
Love the video! We need fry updates n the tubs! Xoxo
Stay tuned!
