For all you local Knoxville water gardeners!!

The bog gardens at the entrance of the UT gardens are being torn out in the next couple of weeks. Therefore, I have obtained permission from the curator of the gardens for us to dig out whatever we want that's still in there. There are two lotus ponds (pink and white lotus) with a lot of lotus left, a lot of several different kinds of rushes and sedges, some Iris ensata, some "dwarf" (not terribly small, just smaller than normal size) cattails, and maybe one or two other things. Oh, and baby tadpoles! LOL!

I'm going to be over there on Saturday afternoon. If you are interested in having some of the plants, you need to come dig em yourself! Do NOT go over there to dig without me. Send me an email to let me know you're interested, and meet me over there around 1PM Saturday. Bring clothes that you don't mind getting REALLY mucky in, bring some strong plastic bags or pails or tubs, bring shovels, bring pruners, and one or two gardening saws wouldn't hurt.
