Awesome, do you plant and leave them out straight away or do you acclimatise them first, I'm on my 2nd and my first success was after acclimatising them first, kinda too scared to leave them out straight away lol?

Hi ADA Thank you :) No at the moment there in clear plastic bags ;) I open them up every day and mist spray :) But as the weather is warming up i will acclimatize them over a few days:D Sooner the better As all the bags are driving the wife nuts :eek:[DOUBLEPOST=1400426399][/DOUBLEPOST]

I really like the first one Roy, very cool. The second one, not so much, but that's mostly personal; I don't really like recreating trees like this, wether emers or submers, but like I said, that's just me!
First one looks great though! I was already thinking about using some terrestrial moss from the woods near my house, and now I'm convinced! Let nature inspire and provide!
 
These floating plants look like Azolla... In eastern Spain,, where I live they were unknown during the last decades or so but now they cover channels and rice fields. The carpets looks sometimes beautiful with some emersed Polygonum in between and those reddish colours but I cannot see them beautiful anymore... So invasive!

Hi Parotet, The Azolla, Is a fab looking plant ;) That's what got my attention in the first place the red colour :rolleyes: But a few days out of sunlight and the red is fading :(Back to a green :banghead: Even using a 10w 6500 flood light ?--" So invasive" :( So True But over here it dies back in winter .
