Isn't amazing how much it changes during the season.  It was beautiful before, but you add in the color of the flowers and WOW!

Amazing transformation, very creative design too!  o(

As a fellow zone 5 'er, I feel your pain of the short pond season.  :(

Haven't had much time to post much lately but sure have enjoyed seeing yours when I've had time to check the boards mcp.  The pics are great and I love the metamorphose of your pond.  I tend to favor the transition from moonscape to jungle at my place.  If you're like me, mcp, you don't need a green thumb when ten dirty fingers work very well.   :teehee:

How bizarre of my southern eyes!... I live in South Texas, and here it's green all year round.  Of some plants, I had MORE when it was cold, than when it's hot.

It's interesting how your pond looks so much bigger, once the plants are filled out and filling it up.

So pretty.

Thank you for all the nice comments. If I think of it will try to show the transformation when it is fall and winter. I always complain about ponding season being too short but in fact it is really neat to see from one season to next. :)
