Hate that icy cold water in the early spring? Dragonfly Aquatics has the perfect product for you! These gloves have a full arm waterproof sleeve. Great for getting things in and out of the water garden when the water is still chilly. The glove end is made of a flexible PVC shell with a seamless cloth liner and the waterproof sleeves are nylon reinforced to prevent tearing. I would never be without this pond accessory. Sold one size fits all or contact us to special order small, medium, large or extra-large specific sizes.

Some of you further north of us, are already getting some chilly nights.  The leaves on your trees are already showing the colors of fall. Here, in Ohio things are just beginning to change. In the past week, I've noticed a few splotches of color. Before the leaves begin to fall, cover your pond with one of our pond covers. The goal is to try and keep the pond as clean as possible for the winter months. Leaves will sink to the bottom of the pond and rot, causing excess carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulfide. After the first frost, take out any floating plants, as these will begin to decay. Trim back hardy lilies and place below the freeze line. Trim foliage back on your hardy bog plants. Not all bog plants need to be submerged, some will be fine where they are. Check out each plants individual needs to ensure they re-appear in the spring for you.
