Hi again~
I know I have posted this question in the past.....am hoping to get moving on this soon again and get it done now finally! I have a pond that is 17 X 8' with center island, that is with a flexible liner, and has two areas which are both 19" deep, about half has a shelf 8" deep. I just have it now with no sides of rocks, or rocks/pebbles on the bottom. The liner extends about 1' on one side and about 2' on the rest of the sides. Some river rocks are on the edging placed there to hold the liner and give me an idea what it could look like....
I want the finished pond to have half flagstone edging that butts right up to a flagstone patio....the rest of the pond I want to look more natural with various rocks, boulders and plantings. There will be a small stream and waterfall also shortly I hope.
What are my options to get the edging done the way I am envisioning it?
I know people sent diagrams of how the liner could fold under rocks, which looked interesting-- is that my only option now vs. installing rock sides?
I guess I am hesitating to remove the water and build a wall up from the sides now...it looks too pretty. I was hoping that the edging and flagstone would be able to extend out over the liner by about 1/3 of the stone in order to hide the liner above the water level.
Any "re-advice" would be so welcome!
Thanks all~
