Improvements around the Pond

15 years ago

This spring I made some changes around the pond, I put in a walkway from the patio to the pond with some small flower gardens and new low voltage lights

Added a old water pump and ran a hose from a 90 gph pump up thru the water pump, works well.

Put a sitting area in the shade on the shallow end of the pond and put a 1250gph pump to run thru the stone bog I built this spring, the birds just love it..

I had to put a net over the pond now due to finding a Blue Heron in the pond last week, all my fish seem to be ok..

Hope you enjoy and happy ponding !!!!

Sheri, its beautiful! I'm new to the site and to ponding. Loved the red old pump. I am just beginning to understand the concepts but I still did not get the idea of how to run a hose from a gph pump to the water pump. Can you take a few mins to explain please? Where did you set the gph pumps? Are they hidden? Loved the bridge too, my daughter wants a bridge and I was thinking abuot ways to incorporate it. Your pictures gave me a nice idea.

It looks beautiful! I love all the lighting you put around it :) What zone are you in? The reason I ask is, I'm wondering what you do with your potted Hostas in the winter.
