Actual Construction of
My Pond |
This is the back yard in January of 2006 |
After planning where the pond will go and the
size, the next step is to make an on scale drawing,
putting your ideas on paper. You can
make changes as you go along so that things fit just "right"
with the lay of the land. As you are
working on the actual pond you may get another idea that you
want to incorporate. In this drawing
you can see 3 ponds that are blue water stream and water falls..
The red is a bridge that goes over the pond. |
Drawing of the plumbing. I did not want
any pipes, tubing, and pumps in my pond that would
detract from the pond itself.
Everything is buried underground. The filter
was then later camouflaged so it would not be visit |

"Bonnie's plants are extremely lush,
top-size plants at prices that compete with our local budget stores! I have
received another shipment from her, and, as always, it arrived in perfect
condition - the Bonus Plant was an
especially nice touch!"
