I'm not much of a gardener and this is mostly annuals but it was my best garden ever. I just went to the garden centre and bought a few flats and stuck them in willy nilly based mostly on size. Just to the left of the center is a round burning bush. It looked great in the fall and is now huge.
There are actually 3 ponds, two smaller ones behind and above my buddies daughter.
These were concrete ponds and my back aches just thinking about hauling in all those stones, many over a hundred pounds.
It was worth the work.
The water sounded great and was a magnet for birds, even a few that were unheard of in the area.
Now I live in an area too cold for such a pond/garden or I'd do another.
