The area isn't really contained, it is all rocks, but the Asian Jasmine ground cover that was growing behind the waterfall took over. We pulled it all out this last summer because it was creating root systems that were redirecting the water and causing too much evaporation.
This pic was in Oct 2004, we had just finished our flag stone area earlier that spring. Like I said it is one big mess now. We got out there this afternoon with the blower and the wet/dry vac and vacuumed up about a 30 gal trash can of acorns! It was impossible to walk. We have decided we are going to put down tarps or something next year to help pick them up. We don't want to cut down the tree because it provides the only shade for the pond in the hot afternoons.
