Yea Richard, like the saying goes, if the wife ain't happy nobody's happy. She really doesn't care, but said she would like to see more color on the pond. Right now were thinking cardinal flower, bee balm, monkey flower, and aster.
I don't mind putting some colorful flowers on the artificial island cause the natural islands have plenty of pickerel weed, cattails and other bog type plants.
If this small island works out I'm gonna make another one bigger and use flexible pipe to give it a more natural irregular shape.
Now just waiting for ice out and warmer weather.
