That's a very pretty little area, Sue :) I've got some of that houttuynia in the garden, but it's taking ages to get established...

Thanks Karen...I split the one in the Pot...the other half is in the Pot at the back, didn't capture that very well...
I did put a potted piece in the front garden, but buried the pot, Houttynia can run rampant in a garden, and difficult to get rid of once it takes hold...

I kind of need some rampancy...big shady areas to fill!!

That's good :o)) like it rampancy...lol...it also has pretty little white flowers, but don't be tempted to smell them tho....

Thanks Pix...I've had an idea, there's a small bit of Patio between the Pond and the Woodland garden, and I've got my Black metal seat there, just wondering if I took those pavers up, I could extend the pond across, and have room for planting in the ground on that end...
Food for thought...

Sure will Clarice...One pond we had on the I.O.W. OH made a bridge using some of the timbers from a single pine bed...I've got the pix, but i'd have to scan them before I can use them I think, as they are photographs...Lovely job he made too....
