I intend building a pergola type structure over my pond. I want to
use a
covering for the top to create some shade. As the top will be level,
I can't
use a waterproof material. I'd 'like' to use something more natural.
Reed
matting perhaps? I wondered if the gardening community might advise?
Thanks

Hi BP.
'Not sure what your overall objective is but, are you sure 100% shade
will satisfy the grand plan?
Is it to be a moss, fern and duckweed pond?
I'm all for some shade but total cover seems a bit OTT - if you will
pardon the pun.
