What does your pond look like ... Today?

The bog bean has grown like crazy this summer, Think I need to remove a bit!

I had to remove a wheel barrow full from my pond and filters and waterfall pond but it has taken over again in less than a month

Bog bean? It has grown real slow for me. This is the first year it grew a lot, in four years.

I think that is actually creeping jenny. I have it too and love it! It is very VERY hardy, maybe too hardy! I am also trying out a greenhouse type style on my pond this year. I'd be interest in your progress! How you going to fit all those guppies back into a 5g!?

I have a bigger tank and going to move them inside soon...
Will post pictures of plastic frame over ponds when I get it done. Just a little plastic frame seems to hold heat in better...

I can't keep up, its a dream world over here... Hubby better get the dishes and laundry done, change babes "P" pad at back door and get the garden picked tomorrow! Ha ha ha!!! Hubby feeds the fish and the puppy children too, and on weekends we both take them to park in truck. living the "Dream"!
Having a good time right now in my greenhouse. Spilled my glass of wine moving stuff around and dancing in my playhouse

Just love all your stuff. I have never been a big decorator. But sure like seeing what others do.

I used to do all that when my boys were little but after they grew up it is even hard for me to put up a christmas tree .Back then it was fun to watch them get all excited .

@callingcolleen1 I have never taken my fish to the park but good for you on getting them out for a fun trip

Well my pond and changed its clothes.

This was Saturday

Sunday the lilies went to sleep poof gone......

Today the bog went to sleep, there were frogs hopping around everywhere. Hated messing up their home, but it needs to be done. If they try to winter there they will die.

I was given 4 elephant ears, they really grew great, we pulled around 25 plus out, all sizes. Now need to read and see what I can do to try and preserve a few of them. See if they will regrow next year.

My helper he is standing right behind them on a rock.

I am standing in the midst of them, I am 5'8".
