NEW POND is progressing

13 comments


my son has now got the waterfall up and running and today he came and put a few stumps in so that I can now get round the pond with something to hang onto as I go. I did put a couple of water lillies in when it was first dug and I can just see a couple of leaves emerging on one of them but no sign of the other one.

The weather was great first thing this morning but got quite blustery this afternoon still we got done what was needed and hopefully I can start planting up my pots a few at a time, taking things slowly slowly.

wow that looks amazing Stroller.

Different water lilies do emerge a different times, my dark pink first followed by the pale pink one.

Another WOW from me! Looking fantastic! So much interest in and around the pond. Love your bridge too, the colour is just perfect.

It’s beautiful. Will you have anymore fish? My water lilies are the same. I’ve got one growing now and the others are still struggling to come up!

Thanks for all your nice comments. Dan I am waiting for the oxygenising plants to settle in and the weather to be a little better before we go and purchase a few goldfish we aren`t having koi this time.

Its looks absolutely lovely Stroller, the whole garden does, my lilies are just below the surface so wont be long now...Nearly had a fit a few days ago, darn great heron appeared and sat on my arch, first time we've had a visit in over 20yrs, I'm on red alert now, we always have a net but I'm still wary....

Phyl, I'm on 'catch-up' for blogs and photos and am so pleased I've seen this at last. Your pond and garden are just stunning. I have 'Pond envy' now!
