Show us ya pond!

[Mikey]

My little pond is now almost hidden by the surrounding vegetation. You can just see a little patch of water with pondweed and a goldfish, bottom left. But the little stream makes a pleasant sound, I can even hear it in the greenhouse.

I finally got around to wiring up the circulation pump to a switch in the shed this morning, a job that's been on the list for 2 years! Not that I ever turn it off, of course.

Thats a big old pond in yer greenhouse Martin, you haven't got a slipped pane of glass have you?

Lovely primula candelabra, Martin.

Nice aren't they! They were from RHS collected seed, purportedly Primula bulleyana and Primula sieboldii.

Treat myself to a pond vac, the kids seem to approve.

I've often looked through this thread a tad envious at how lovely all your ponds look because I've never had but always wanted one. We had talked about putting one in a few weeks ago but no more was said. Then I came home from work tonight to find this



I guess I really am getting a pond 😀

I am one happy and very excited girlie

Meet the boys and of course the girls

Thought I would share pictures of my pond along with the new extension just over 5ft deep. Running nexus 210 with easy pod and oase filto clear and most important vegi filter with tomatoes in .

First water lily flower.



The pond is heaving with dragonfly larvae at the moment - they might slow down the cabbage white butterflies next year.

2 more water features.

I really must get a life..................

Firstly, a Tea-Pot fountain:



Secondly, a Shishi Odoshi filling & emptying:

Just thought I would share my first water lily with another 3 to come. Freegle is a wonderful place.

Here's a picture of our pond!!


When we moved in the house 2 years ago the preview was quite old and didn't really look after it. We have since filled it with rubble. The other half wants to cover it with grass seed.

Nice looking pond Natalie..................

[mothhawk]

Hope you took the fish out Natalie.....

[NatalieCooke]

Nah no fish not for a very long time.
There was quite a few Newts under the old liner. Took them across the in the laws pond.

[NatalieCooke]

Wow that's some pond!

[teakdesk]

My wife is in the both pictures.

You buried her under the pond???

[Green Gerkin]

DWS, that's amazing, can't wait to see the pond filled in. It's bigger than my garden!
I had to hunt the pics for your wife, reminds me of a book we have here "where's wally" where you hunt for a tiny character in a big busy picture! I need glasses! Made me giggle 😀
