SURPRISE For Kenan and Constructing a Swamp Boardwalk

Published 2024-06-22
Ed and I drove down to Kamp Kenan to put water lilies into his recreation pond. After that I gave Kenan a surprise gift that he always wanted. But first we started a new project at the nursery that I have been dreaming about for years. A swamp boardwalk around a natural spring I have on the back of my property.

    Julio did a fantastic job on the boardwalk. Thank you for the fern tree you gave Kenan. It is a beautiful and thoughtful gift.
  • Great idea floating the boardwalk (good luck getting out the duckweed though.) FINALLY getting some lilies in Kenan’s rec pond! All that empty surface was begging for aquatics. Once they’re fully established the turtles shouldn’t be a problem if they’re well fed. Kenan lost his shiza with that beautiful tree fern, I can’t wait to see his head explode when he sees the Victoria waterlily flower change from pure white to purple overnight lol. I’m sure you know a beetle pollinating the flower makes it change color. I thought I saw a Leopardus in there, I like the color-changing lilies like Comanche, the night-blooming tropicals and Chwan Basu, the sacred lotus. Next he’s got to work on that natural pond, I’m amazed there’s no plant life in it whatsoever. He’s going to need Ed to build a bio-filter and plant some marginals (at least) to prevent any more water toxicity issues. You are the man Tom! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻

    I love the choice of music makes it seem suspenseful but also hopeful

    Super Awesome! ^_^ Caesar is getting really good being on Camera, and he plays a nice part of "tension-breaking" to the story-telling.
  • Ceaser is funny and honest 🤣But, Julio did a great job 💯 Can't wait for your cycad garden to be completed 🌴🪴
