I have posted Foxfire on my site: default.aspx The waterlily page is under 'plant album'
Thanks for the info. Steve in France turned me on to this beauty. Love the pics of Foxfire and love your garden!

Edit- Now awaiting a hardy lily called Black Princess, and a lotus called Chawan Basu. This pond is addictive. Luckily I have no more room for anything else!
