Lily Pond...


This is our latest lily pond, the water lily was purchased from Mappins Nursery at Kenmore. They have a huge range of water lillies and aquatic plants, well worth a visit. This pond has emerald spotted tree frog tadpoles in it. Posted by Picasa

Floral Beauty...

Photographed in the frog garden this last spring, this water plant is called pink retala. It's a marginal plant that grows at the edge of ponds.

Water Feature...

This is the largest water feature in our garden, about 2.5 x 1.5 metres and about .5 metres deep. If you look carefully you can spot one of our goldfish having a swim.
