Pool water


Question
Hi!  i already have a large collection of temperate carnivorous plants (thanks to you all and your wonderful plants) but I'm running out of room on my deck where my collection is now... i need more space!  the best spot seems to be by the pool but, when I'm in the pool my friends and i generally jump and splash about.  I'm afraid that the stabilized chlorine (special chlorine that doesn't evaporate quickly) in the water will get in my plants water dishes.  is this ok or should i look for another spot?  thanks for all your help and for all the help you have given me in the past!

Answer
Hi Hayden,

Unless you could make sure no pool water would splash onto your plants, that would be a bad spot.  Pool chlorine is pretty strong, and would damage plants, pretty much any plants.


Good Growing!
