My Pond

Thanks for stopping by! We created a pond in the summer of 2011, and this is our Pond Journey.

Spring 2013 plantings

In a continual effort to keep down the weeds, I decided to try pea gravel this year.  Bags of gravel have been dumped all around the back of the pond.  I moved the white legged pot up to the top of the hill (well, Renee actually moved it for me) and am trying maroon sweet potato vine which I hope will spill down the front of the pot, and papyrus, which I am hoping will add tall interest to the back area.  The Japanese maple survived the very cold winter (reddish leaves in the upper left), and the golden creeping Jenny is naturalized all around the spillway of the waterfall.
