Beautiful Black Magic Elephant Ear and Patient Frog



This picture of the Black Magic Elephant Ears doesn't do the plants justice as they are amazing. We started with one plant in a 6 inch pot 2 years ago and now have two 6 inch pots full of plants and several small pots with cuttings that are growing nicely. This fall we will spilt the largest into three 6 inch pots and spread them around the pond. The one pictured is sitting on the waterfall with some of it's offspring.
This frog sat in the same position on the Water Hyacinth almost all day Tuesday. He didn't move for over 6 hours and he was like a statue when I took the picture. I don't know if this was a good spot for catching bugs but he really seemed to enjoy the setting.
