What does your pond look like ... Today?

[FountainMan]

I purchased some plants from Pondmegastore.com. All that’s left is adding pavers along the top of the border to hide the liner.

Looks really nice w/all those plants. You should tell us all the names and then along the way tell us how well they do in your pond in case we might like to add some to our ponds

First thing to bloom in the spring, and the fun's not over when they stop blooming. The seed head stage is even more interesting.

Today I finished the stonework around the garden and pond. I bought some rock wall tile squares from Lowe’s and cut them into strips to place over the liner of the header pool to the waterfall.

Looks tons better!

Before

After.

The entire pond. Added pavers over the top of the liner and ran them from the end of the pond to the end of the herb garden.

It's been forever since I have posted here. I was outside cleaning my pump this morning and after I came inside I searched up the old forum. It's good to see many of the familiar names still around and a several new ones too! Here's what my little pond looks like after 5 years now. I still have my original 2 goldies that have endured the winters.

I get really interesting stones and sea glass from the dollar store .I think I may put some in the birdbath that the sealer bubbled up on and I had to remove it and did not know what to do to make the birdbath pretty again
