This is a sculpture my daughter in art school designed. I'm sure she had other things in mind when she designed it but there is only one thing that everyone comments about when they encounter this one. I told my daughter (27) that I was going to plant 2 birds nest spruce at the base of this and she hit me. Ha Ha. I placed this on a large bolder that existed on the property. This is the upper aspect of my Floral water fall. The Anagalis "blue sky" make a perfect lake color at the top of the falls followed by the Wisteria (white) that cascade down the rock and are met at the bottom with Liatris (white) to make the 10'decent into my "to be" hot tub. The stream continues with California blue bells in the dry area of stream and then is continued to the bottom of the hill 200' with all the river rock I have hauled off the glacial moraine we live on. Making a dry stream bed that keeps me from having to evaporate lots of water in our dry summers.
