Today ’s photos are from Krista Havill in Ottawa Hills , Ohio . Krista says,“For many years , I have attended local garden tour and realized that my favourite gardens had a water feature . So in 2004 , my husband ( who has an engineering background ) and I , with my cognition of plant life , design and built a water system garden to raise our survive landscape .
“ Our land is quite vapid so in rescript to have two diminished waterfall and a stream stream into the kidney shaped pond , major shite had to be motivate . My plant pick repeats burgundy , yellowness , blues , and of trend , chill out shades of green . It is a wonderful place to loose and hear to the phone of water and watch the fish , frogs , and perhaps a hummingbird vanish in and out of the boo of paradise natural spring atomizer . ”
Gorgeous , Krista ! It ’s not well-fixed to make an attractive water system garden , but you succeeded in a magnanimous direction . Thanks for sharing it with us !
