The rocks not actually tied to the plant. I tied the rock, then looped the string loosely over the middle of the whole plant carefully moving leaves etc. It is not tight to the plant. Is that okay do you think.?I will have to swim to get it out next time
as when I placed it back into the pond Sonny moved it nearer the middle so I've no chance of just paddling in the shallows. The string is then just placed over the top of the container just like you would package a parcel, not actually touching the lily or it's roots, leaves etc.
