Hi

Maybe a daft question but here goes anyway.

Would I be stupid to put a pond in a garden that can get quite
saturated with water?


The one problem you probably will have is that the water from the ground
could spill into the pond. This can make the water nutrient rich and lead to
massive growth of blanket weed. So make sure you have the pond slightly
raised in relation to the ground.
The possibilities for growing some wonderful marginals make me really
envious...
