How we created our pond with wildlife in mind and the aim to hide the pond liner so that it looks natural.

    Your right, everyone needs a pond 🙂 Lots of hard work you've put into your property.

    I love your wildlife pond, so well made and planted! It is the one feature that I don't have in my garden but very much want, it was fascinating to see how you approached creating it. And Milo is a very handsome boy🥰 Thank you for stopping by my channel and leading me back to yours - I'm now a subscriber.

    Wow! This was next level landscaping🙌 I really like how well the plants fill in the space. I can tell a lot of consideration went into the design and layout.

    Looks really good. I've just had to drain mine after about 6 years and add a filter. Plants alone weren't enough to keep it turning stagnant eventually.

    Thank you! Shame the plants didn’t do the job for you. My old pond did eventually balance out after a few years, but then the whole thing was covered in water mint by that stage and you couldn’t see any of the water even though it was clear! I'm keeping clear of water mint this time.

    @@PlasBachGarden yeah I had years of a good pond but eventually just a lack of movement and biological filtration meant a restart. I expected it. Will see how a filter does. The trickle sounds nice 🙂

    Hi there. I loved your video. Your pond is lovely and your garden is amazing. You must have some very interesting wildlife in your pond and in your garden. Have you had frogspawn this year yet?

    Thanks so much! Being out in the wilds, we do get some interesting wildlife. Neighbours tell me there are some otters living downstream from us, so it would be great to see some of those. No frogspawn as yet. We do have another pond (well a big hole that was meant to be a pond but is more of a puddle! I'll show it in another vid sometime) and that gets frogspawn - not seen any yet this year, but we might be a few weeks behind as we're a bit high up.

    What is the taller flowering plant you have in the shallows ?

    Hi there! If it’s the one I think you mean, it’s Purple Loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria). I have it growing as a marginal pond plant here, but you can grow it directly in soil too. Pollinating insects love it.
