It's turned out GREAT so far! I like the shape, colors and planters. Will look really nice when it's filled with water and plants around it.

Thanks for the encouragement all . My goal is to get a pond liner and fiiller up this year. I have a pump , I need a make-shift fountian in the middle and maybe 3 fish , Im more interested in the excellent choice of plants that are possible . (especially water lillies - wondering if I can do tropical waterlillies and overwinter them inside) I need to read-up more on alot of stuff .I also need to make a bio filter .

Beautiful job! I have a few tropical lilies that are managing to survive the winter inside. Last year one lived, one died. Most of mine are hardies.

I moved down here 9 years ago after the Edison ford plant closed and we retired down here .To expensive to retire up there .Down here 1 thousand a year in taxes on 3 acres up there 1 acre 11 thousand a year .We lived on Old Post Rd in Edison on a private owned road .I actually think they said it was the only private owned road in Edison .It was still part of Old Post RD but there were only 4 houses on it .You did all the stucco work on your pond your self ?I have yet to see a pond built like yours on here .great job

 

[Stephennj]

thankyou , yes I have done all the work

 

[sissy]

well I have to say you did one great job doing it .I don't see stucco much here but love the look of it but I would sure never try that myself .I would make a mess of it :razz:
