    We had a pond in our garden with a waterfall. Our Koi would swim to the edge as soon as anyone came near, waiting for food. They all had names. My grandchildren just loved them. It was magical. Enjoy and make memories.

      Laura has to get a waterproof camera soon to see the antics of the fish underwater 😆 it would also be interesting to see how the pond looks from inside with the sun glowing through the lilypads must be magic 🌟 also do put a blackface elderberry at the back would be perfect esp in the spring with the blooms among the evergreens

    How natural this corner of the property now looks! Its as if this pond was always there! Great choice in replacing the Juniper out front! To think this was the most unused portion of your property, and now it will be your most popular place to relax! Totally enjoyed this series of videos! 💖💖🌲🌼🌻🐠🐟

Is anyone as excited as I am to watch this area develop and grow into the beautiful oasis, garden, destination area, family hangout and wildlife area I know it will become. On a selfish side note, we get to come along for the trip. Thanks Laura, Aaron and crew for making these quality videos. Kudos to Greg, Brian and all the CAC ‘s for such a fun fantastic journey.😍

      When the Koi get bigger, they will love chunks of Watermelon. When we lived in PA we did a 15x25 pond with two waterfalls. Our Koi would come up to greet us as soon as we walked onto the deck and would talk to them. Love Koi kisses when hand feeding.

    At 22:11 why don’t you extend the the blonde ambition grass all the way to the birch, I think that will look stunning. Also I can’t get enough of this pond you and your family deserve every bit of it for all the joy and happiness you bring to your viewers.

    I really enjoyed this video. I have enjoyed the entire pond build. I remember you used to say this was the least used part of the garden. Now it will become the most used part of your garden. The pond looks so natural (like it has always been there) and as the plants mature it will only get better. Oh my. It is a magical place. Also, the pond guys are amazing. They were phenomenal putting this area together. Then you worked your usual magic with all the great plants. So happy for you and your family. Have a blessed day everyone!!

    I love this pond series and learning about the Aquascape Ecosystem Pond. This type of project and the learning it would provide through ongoing care would be an invaluable and enjoyable learning experience. I am a Special Education teacher (and avid gardener) and will look into ways our community and schools could partner and build a pond to elevate a common area while providing a valuable hands-on learning experience. Thank you so much for putting the series together, I loved seeing the collaboration and the artistry, and the pure talent. Cheers!

    Welcome to pond life! We've had a succession of ponds over the last 34 years in 3 different houses. Not only are the ponds beautiful to see and hear, they bring so much life to the garden. Birds, squirrels, frogs, turtles and insects visit all day long. When the sun goes down, its a wildlife watering hole for racoons, possum, fox, rabbits and deer. Please add a motion activated camera to your pond so you can see who visits the pond. You won't believe it!
    Thank you for your great channel! A friend sent me a link during early 2020 and I have been watching ever since. It kept me going during lock down.

    The pond area is beautiful. I can imagine you being able to sit there in the fall on a chair with a blanket over your lap sipping cocoa. It will transport you for sure. The grass by the waterfall is perfect. It’s nice to see you moving plants. Sometimes I feel like I don’t like something but don’t move it to a better area then I think it’s just a plant I can move it, give it away, get a new one. It really is that easy. Enjoy the day

    Brian having the boulders extend out further from the immediate pond throughout the berms really does make a difference to a cohesive design. The rock colors and textures are a gift to this garden as you plant around them. We’ve added a few smaller ones to our garden and they are a beast to move and place so the fact that you already have them is such a gift from this project. So beautiful.

    The artistry in the pond footage with the music was incredible. I’m having to pause the video to write this. I could watch it over and over. You should make this part of the video into a clip. Or maybe into a longer format video of pond footage with music to it. I found it so calming and relaxing. I’d love it if you’d consider that.

    I've always loved your videos about planting different areas of your garden. Planting the new area with drifts of plants and watching it develop was such a joy. THEN, this pond, Oh my! What an incredibly beautiful creation! I've learned so much about making it look as though it has always been there and created by nature. I just can't imagine how happy you and Aron are. Your children will have such wonderful memories playing around and in it. Once the fish come over to you for their feeding, your children will be so excited. What was your mother's reaction? I bet she was in love. This pond will be the center of so many family and friend gatherings. I am sooooo happy for you. ❤️

    Isn't it wonderful how the appearance & sound of water can make the temperature seem 20 degrees cooler??? It is a truly lovely space and imagining how it will look in 3 to 5 years is just exciting!!!!

    It is AWESOME! Such a beautiful area for your family to enjoy for years to come. I'm sure, with your expertise in plants, the surrounding gardens will make a beautiful entrance into the pond area. Looking forward to seeing the future videos as you plant all the beautiful plants in those gardens and to see all the plants grow and mark their spots around the pond. The whole area is breathtakingly beautiful.

    This amazing pond (extraordinary WATERSCAPE!) is a wondrous addition to your glorious property. Thank you for sharing 💕
    I’m an avid gardener from tropical North Queensland, Australia… and although much of what you grow in your garden I cannot… I look forward to enjoying every new YT episode you upload.
    Blessings to you and your family x

    Yay for dragonflies! They eat up mosquitoes. Also, we need a kitty adventure video. At least 10 min of the cats exploring, being cute and having fun. 😸

    The addition of the dark mulch highlights all the trees, bushes and plants that surround the pond and rocks. The sound of the waterfall into the pond is soothing. Everyone involved in your pond project was so genuine and informative during every step of the project.

    In Washington we have a native rose that I assume you all have down in Oregon as well. It’s called Wood’s Rose and it has a more open, natural growth than cultivated varieties. It would be a really cool option for your to get some roses with a native, natural appearance that would suit the vibe nicely. They’re a soft pink single bloom and have color most of the summer. Major pollinator magnet. I constantly see them in meadows and forests while hiking around the PNW.

    • @Chet_Thornbushel
      @Chet_Thornbushel 11 місяців тому +6

      Oh! I also just remembered- we have a native/wild bleeding heart that I think you would love! And it blooms all summer and doesn’t sort of fizzle out and disappear by august like the ones you typically see planted. I have several in my shade garden and they’re lovely. The proper name is Dicentra Eximia I believe. Those and the Wood’s Rose are definitely plants that can be purchased through nurseries but they just aren’t as common as the cultivated ones.

    So beautiful and I can just imagine how relaxing it can be just to sit in the mornings or evenings. I love how the kitties think you did all that just for them. You can tell how much they love the rocks and being able to explore. The kids will never forget this experience. Great job.

    Wow, I am finally seeing your new pond. Didn't realize the pond would be so tremendous. Really like the waterfall, all the stones as borders, & different shaped boulders. Many beautiful plantings & especially like your blue spruce in the background and blond ambition is delightful & will certainly search for the delicate grass soon. Thank you, for sharing! So many more plantings to be done but looks like you have plenty of help. I know you do many yourself!

    I have binged on all the pond building episodes, thanks for sharing with us. I love the undulation of the whole area, it adds so much character to a garden, not just the pond area but the whole surrounding and the way that you can fit plants into dips and curves, with rocks and trunks, it brings a garden to life.
