Precious Gems -- Jewels of the
Garden
Our Pond and Garden at the
2002 Southeastern Flower Show
The Koi
The koi we carried to the show were from our own personal collection. From left top clockwise is Mr. Wartz, Smokey Jo, and Butterfly. Mr. Wartz was the biggest in size but Smokey Jo was biggest in showing off!

We were delighted by how friendly the koi were. This is a shot of my sister-in-law, Cindy, feeding Mr. Wartz some bread -- don't worry, it was whole wheat! | |
 |
We weren't the only ones the koi delighted. This little boy was applauding their performance. (Notice The Doc behind him -- Ever the watchman to make sure no koi were harmed in the making of this film...) | |

Here's a shot of Penny eating. Penny's always been finicky and never ate out of my hand before the show. Now look at her! Their water must have been drugged! | |
 |
Look! The koi were feeding The Doc! Butterfly was making sure Cecil got all his daily vitamins. | |
 |
A strange thing was going on the whole time we were there. These floating globes would travel around the pond at night but stayed stationary during the day. We never knew where the balls would be the next morning when we arrived. | |
 |
Ah, ha! Now we know how the balls magically moved around the pond! | |
