Very nice.
What is thr gallonage onthe pond?
Also, what is blooming ( red)?
Nice border plants too, very good looking mapel and conifers.
What type of weeping plant ( spruce? ceder?) is that in the left of the picture?

 

[steve535]

thanks dino, from left to right. weeping norway spruce(tall just about in pic), dwarf gold tip hinoki cypress,dragon eye(Pinus thunbergii), and a weeping hemlock over the waterfall box.the red are two big old azalea's in the back round and the pond is about 1500 to 1700gal. I will post some more in a couple of weeks. steve

wow that is just awesome, i wish i had a back yard like that, very tranquil looking.

 

[steve535]

thanks, we love just hanging outside as much as we can. another picture from that set.

 

[steve535]

what a difference 4 weeks makes. I had to trim some of the shrubs back to see the back round plants.It was late in the day, all the lily flowers were closed.I took this pic with a ultra wide lens thats why it has the fish-eye look.steve

 

[jessey]
