Pond inset into slope of garden & built raised on front edge to ensure the water level is kept level. Wide marginal pond shelves for planting and a blade feature to create interest as it falls like a sheet into the deeper water section. Blades keep the splashing to a minimum so a waterlily could be placed in the deep water at the front corner away from the fall of water.

The limestone finish in our fibreglass container ponds gets green algae just like real stone so looks more authentic after a short time.

The customer contacted us for help but a downpour of rain sorted out the problem in the short term by oxygenating the water. The oily look may be caused by too much sludge on the bottom using up too much oxygen to rot down. Signs that the pond needs a clean out next Autumn.

The lilies were lovely this year even without any hint of summer. Here is a pic of 'Little and Large' - the white is stunning! (dwarf Nymphaea candida and Pygmaea Helvola).

We are lucky enough to have a large colony of newts along with some very ancient toads living there and they love the large leaves and cool shade around the ponds to hang out in. It's because of this I am reluctant to prune back and mess about with their habitat. Your lovely plants will however add to the attraction of the ponds for all these creatures.

I thought you might like to see a few images of my pond on the Herts/Essex border which is maturing nicely now with the help of all the wonderful plants that I got from you.
