Landscaping Around Ponds
I usually keep all my water based questions limited to rec.ponds. I thought
I would ask my around water based question here in alt.garden.pond.chat, but I was naughty too and cross posted to rec.ponds. Hope I don't get flamed to badly. Anyway... What kind of issues did you think about as you landscaped AROUND your pond? and in the area of the pond? I have seen a few in my area that are beautiful, but they're just plopped into the backyard environment. I am trying to take some time to make sure my pond follows the grade of the yard and the look of the yard so that it appears to be part of the yard, not dropped in. Any thoughts? -- BenignVanilla tibetanbeefgarden.com x-no-archive: yes Remove MY SPLEEN to email me. |

Maybe people will flame you. It seems to me that cross-posting is not a
problem and is indeed healthy. Open and welcoming communities (open systems with some structure) get new input and keep order. Rigid, closed systems must use only internal resources...bad in the long run. If we are open to alt.garden.pond.chat, our system gets input from that source, or maybe becomes a workable, larger system including that site. Nutshell: Post away on garden.chat and bring us the fruit of your learning. Ponders of the world unite.

I can't believe you're leveling every paving brick, one by one, perfectly. I can't believe you talk other people into doing this too, with such enthusiasm! You must be insane and need to be committed or something? Perhaps more fiber in the diet would help this problem? And that's what I thought about. ) ~ jan See my ponds and filter design: http://users.owt.com/jjspond/ ~Keep 'em Wet!~ Tri-Cities WA Zone 7a To e-mail see website |
