My Pond In Winter

I can't wait for my marginals to get going.

I would have to call that a 'lake' DA! lovely! Your garden is just stunning. Look at that sun lit sky reflecting that blue, and those wonderful birch stems. Know what you mean though....needs some marginals to soften the edges. Not long now DA! I just received my 'water avens' for my boggy bit! Hope to get it planted tomoz.

Thanks Karen, just hope the plants I set last year have survived the Winter. Good look planting your water avens, I have more plants coming soon.

Great colour Dawn, it looks as though it goes on forever. The Willow on the river banks down here are just coming into their glory.
