These pictures show more rock work. We haven't cut any liner yet and have quite a bit of it. There is also a picture of the red stemmed parrots feather from
@addy1 that grew steadily over the winter under the pond cover. All I did before winter is tuck some into a small mesh bag and tie it to a pipe, leaving it floating in the pond.
Hubby is also building an extension to the structure that hides our hideous sand & gravel filter. We'd hoped to move and replumb it, but found a tree stump in the area we wanted to move it to.....so this is our cosmetic solution....painting will commence once warmer.
Also, the "Fab Four" are happily swimming around the pond looking so beautiful...and approaching 16 years in the pond ! I gave them a light feeding last night and felt my blood pressure drop....so calming.
View attachment 127055The first pic here i can see the rubber in the back dig out an area under creating a pocket let the rubber down and back up the other side throow a plant in there and no more liner in a year add a little stone some of this size some of that size in nature rarely do you ever see just one size of river rocks theres always the odd ball . that goes for the bog as well put a drift wood or boulder a few base ball sized rocks in the bog the water and plants will grow right around them and in time you'll never know they were there. You'll want to paint the pvc pipe the sun will make it very brittle in short time in Arizona etc it actually will look burned . "Nice rock work " food for thought i love the character the rocks have the one on the left has a perfect indent like it was crying to be the corner piece .

If you have enough rubber can it be secured to the GREEN wall and fill with soil or river rock ? some creeping jenny running over the edge running into the pond.

View attachment 127058In the upper pic it looks like your water is running under the rock ? if you can let a little leach out to the left where that rubber is not alot just a little to keep t moist and some moss thats doing well around your falls or a stream i'm finding out the bright green moss does well sitting in such a place even in full sun so long as it has plenty of water . Brian from aquascapes has done things like a small pipe to let water get past damns nice trick . oh and if you don't know about it the waterfall foam can direct water where you want it to go and not go. I have it in the bottom of the log with the latest video i just posted it's already turning from gray to yellowy green . i alowed some water just a tad to get past and drip out the end of the log in the evening when the sun sets it's like it's dripping diamonds from the light.
