Hello and welcome!

Have to say, that is the cutest idea for a “flower bed!” is it an actual BED, or a construction made to resemble one? And is it part of the pond’s filtration? I love it! Wonder if I could get away with that in my yard?

thank you all for your lovely welcome ! yes the bed was our old bed that i made some years ago, after my wife passed i got a new bed, not wanting to throw the old one away i placed it out in the garden filled it up with rubble then 6" topsoil and then turfed the top and now have a place to relax after a hard days ponding, sadly its not connected to the pond more of a feature that is usable, i do have bog questions that i will post in the correct section. hi turtle mommy never thought of it as a " flower bed" but that is what it will be known as from now on, thanks.
