We finally added the gravel to the walkway and the pond garden is starting to fill in nicely. I even have clear water again and the fish are looking happy.
The "Dry River" walkway is done
A little different angle.
Love the way you did the walkway. It looks really nice.
what a wonderful destination at the end of your path---good work---*passes you the tylenol* lollots of color too
Thankyou. This is the right half of my wee yard. I still have a lot of work to do on the other half but in 4 months this is as far as we have gotten due to time and money shortages :~) But as the plants mature it will start to look more and more like a garden retreat instead of an apartment no mans land. I started on this side because it is viewed from the livingroom and dining area. The gravel pathway allows me to cross to the pond without worrying about muddy feet or paths worn into the grass.
Zany: Lookin good. I esp. like the his and hers hats hang on the fence. It's nice that you can look out a window onto the pond.
zanymuse, what a pretty spot, the gravel path is great. I especially like the pot hanging on the fence, and the hats. It is a lovely spot. Donna
Looks great!
I love it Zany!
That looks really nice Zany! All you work is paying off! What kinds of plants do you still need for the other side? It will be cold here before I know it and some of my plants will have to find new warmer homes.
Thanks everyone! I am pleased as punch with the way it is starting to look and just had to show it off a little!
Badseed, the other side is Sunnier so I want to put in a trellis with a climbing rose and a clematis, iris, Cannas, geraniums and something with purple leaves and chartruce leaves for contrast.....not sure what yet! Almost anything that will take more sun and not be too invasive in this small space that I can find that will not be too costly for my budget.
Sweet!!!Very nice job!I can hear the brook babbling in my mind!Well there is something babbling in my head!LOL!
I think I can send that! LOL Seriously, I can send you some iris, canna soon, etc. Do sweet potato vines do well there? That could take care of your chartreuse and purple both. I won't store everything I have for the winter, so I'd be happy to send them on to a warmer home. :)
How pretty! It looks wonderfully natural.
Root, that babbling sound is just me a runnin of at the mouth as usual! LOL
Badseed, I would love to get a package of plants from you. I have newer tried a Sweet potato vine but it would be fun to try! Let me know how much postage to send when you are ready!
kneff, thanks for the compliment. It is hard to go wrong using native rocks ;~)
