To put the pond in wasn't hard for me at all. I went flower shopping in Indiana and my husband dug it in while I was gone!! It was a surprise. He did complain quite a bit on how far you have to dig down. He did most of the digging and my boys hauled it off in a wheelbarrow to a low spot in our yard. At first he dug it too low and we got a bunch of rain so that you couldnt even see the pond. We had to drain it and layer the bottom of the hole with pavers to raise it.

Now, look what I got in the mail today from Wayside!! Green envy echinacea--can you believe the size of this monster?? It has a bud forming too!!!
