The new pump was purchased at Lowe’s several weeks ago. This morning–while waiting for customers–I installed the new pump. I love the soothing sound of the running water; relaxing. Visitors love the fountain, too, but I’m quick to say “It’s not for sale.”
Three Quarters & Counting 
The plant is a shade-loving perennial variegated Hosta. It will burn and turn brown in a sunny location, keep moist and mulching is recommended.
Sincere THANKS, Julie, for name and plant care. I’ll keep it in the shade. ~~ Honestly, I don’t know how that plant came into my garden but I was delighted when I saw it “smiling” up at me.
