Nature pond revamp

4 comments

Well not so much a revamp, just a bit of a tidy up to bring the whole design together. It became possible after removing some decking edging that was running along my old border, as we couldn’t remove it when the pond was first made. It had always bugged me that the rocks couldn’t continue entirely round the pond!
Here’s the area I wanted to change…

Sean removed the wood separating the slate and cotswold stones first, then I scrapped off the cotswold stones and laid some new weed membrane. I planted up a little Salix bush and another curly rush to complete the design. Rocks were eagerly placed around the pond – it looks so much better and complete! Plum slate added and ta da, my pond is to my satisfaction. It looks much better all joined together now the wood and white stones have gone.

We found some gorgeous big rocks 2 for £7, I think they fit in perfectly.

Just a shame that to the back of the pond I have next door’s weeds to battle :(
