Thanks, JoAnn .... a 30 Foot Long walk in the park, even! Meandering the paths helps the illusion, I have discovered.

Now that the pines have grown in, I can really develop the underplanting. I am thinking I want to keep all the things by the pond cool blues. Not sure if I mentioned that the pines are planted on a rock pile of my friend's busted up patio. The alpine garden area. It is already covered with sweet woodruff, couple of iris, and a mahonia just starting to take off.

Any suggestions are most welcomed for the rock pile, which runs east to west, so I have a north side and a south side of the pine row. The pines hide the pump, filter, and settlement pond (east end) which will spill onto the stream that winds around the base of the north side of the rock pile heading west into the main pond.

I am a big fan of Daisies, too, Jan .... Those volunteered in my yard. Some things I don't mind, if they creep in from the neighbor's garden. I miss the B.E.Susans. Need more of those.

I received some AV leaves in a trade that are growing well, but not yet flowering. Who has 'em??

I miss Lucifer. Not familiar with Glowing Embers.

Here's some rippling water for ya, Patti! ..... and my Triple 'Kwanso' ...
