That is beautiful, flora2b, great job! Hubby 'lost' the construction pictures of my pond from last summer - really wish I had them so I could see how far I've come!

Your pond is fantastic!! Your Water Lilies and fence are GORGEOUS! How long did it take to overhaul? We have a pond as well that needs a lot of TLC - it's on the "next year's" project list.

Hi Donna,
Thanks for the nice comments.
I started this pond from scratch in April and was finished the basics by June, with finishing touches such as making fake rocks etc through the rest of the summer and fall.
I used fragaria's pond and layout for inspiration.
Have fun in your revamp.
Flora
