    I try to keep them flushed out because of the mosquitos. I like looking at the dart frogs but they aren't in florida. I've seen those ones I'm so scared of trying to spawn in them
    Thanks Zain!

    Nice growing, Cathy. The ones I grow are under the benches in the greenhouse. I have just left them there for the last few years and they have attached themselves to the gravel of the floor. haha... I need to pull them out this summer and do some cleanup work on them. I always love seeing the amazing color they produce.

    cheers,
    BD
