Hi Anita,

Versicolors should be able to go into the pond any time you're past the
point of it freezing over for long periods and they're large enough to
handle easily. In a pot, they can be a small as 5-6" tall. Good to at least
zone 3, they do well in average garden soil with average water so are also a
good choice for mixed plantings.

We're having typical spring weather with sun and 50 degrees, hail, rain, and
this morning.... snow. We're short on water during the summer so I've been
transplanting versicolors to plastic lined beds for the past week. :-)
