Hello, here are a few photos of my pond. It is three months old but I was lucky having stone with lichens and moss.

Very natural looking. I like that one vertical rock on the right. Did the moss just grow there or did you do the mayonnaise trick? I blend moss and mayonnaise, spread it on rocks within a shaded area and poof, two weeks later and you got moss covered rocks.

Well done! I wish I would have had luck like that when getting my rocks. They make your pond look very mature.

So... I have heard about this trick but I think with buttermilk. If you don't mind my asking, what kind of moss do you use and how much mayo? You use a blender right?

Thanks
