Water Feature Featuring More

Over the hot and humid holiday weekend, Henry persevered and made progress on our water feature. 


This is where we left off  (do you like how I say "we"? We are a team after all)...

We needed about 40 big border rocks and found them at our local big box hardware stores for approximately 1.40 each. We decided that instead of spending our pennies on rocks we would steal them...from ourselves...

Henry did some reworking of our backyard beds and we reasonably scrounged up enough rock for the border of our new water feature...

Next comes the planting. The big Hosta in the back is from our own side yard that nobody sees. We plan on taking more from that side of the yard in the future. The smaller Hostas in the bin come from the neighborhood parkway, the area between the sidewalk and the road. The road is being redone and the construction crews are ripping up everything and tossing it in a dumpster- except for these lucky Hostas!

 Looking good...

More Henry! We want more!
