Congratulations Snapple !!! I can hear your sigh of relief, that it's finally over.
Koi Spawn?
You've got that right. The stress was ugly. It's nice to get the recognition but I really truly won't put myself through that again. I don't have the land or the financial resources to compete with the major winners. Some of those landscapes were in the six figure category - no kidding. I must have been a little crazy to try.
Snapple: Thanks for the info on your garden. I have more room as you stated but I really like the intimacy of your space-more room probably wouldn't look as nice. It is really beautiful. How come we never saw that spot of your garden before? What other garden "secrets" are you keeping? LOL!
I've got some shots in the camera I hope to post tomorrow. Honestly mm - it would look just as good, maybe better, in a larger area. The backdrop would be an important consideration.
