Suburban Water Gardens

There's this place in Dix Hills, Long Island that is so thrilling to me, called Suburban Water Gardens. It's a place to buy a pond, koi, tropical or hardy aquatic plants, and bonsai. It's worth a trip not only for the beautiful things they are selling but also for the the woman who cares for the fish and the aquatics. She is so beautifully obsessed with them and so good at her job that it makes me want to weep. If you're ever in the market for a pond or aquatic plants in the Long Island area, go here:
