Since you guys been hounding me for an update on my floating bog project

I got the idea when I got a Sarracenia psittacina and I was researching how it grows in the wild. They grow in the very wet sometimes even partially submerged. Sarracenia purpurea can also grow in very wet conditions.

A photo from the internet of Sarracenia psittacina liking the wet.

My pond doesn't have the correct depths for that so I decided mine should float and this is what happened.

Then the frogs moved in and trashed the place.

Wow this is so pretty! If you hear some strange activity outside your window during night, it's just me admiring your bog.

This reminds me creepily of Jessy Chesterton from the old forum.
