my pond/waterfall

[Gandalf]

12 years in central illinois. 50' waterfall with an 8' drop into a 3000 gal pond. Just goldfish as the Heron and Mink come in and eat the expensive fish. All tropicals are wintered indoors.

Very beautiful property and love all the work you have done!

Wow! Gorgeous!

What's the purple flower? Mexican bluebell is my guess - it's beautiful!

Bravo, Well Done.
How old is your pond ? and in the second and third photo what is the ground cover ?

it's called Mexican Petunia by the grower but I suppose it could go by other names. New blossoms every day all summer.

that is Sedum. slow growing but hardy and prevents weeds from germinating. Has a nice flower in the spring.

My wife planted a half-dozen Mexican Petunias several years ago. They spread like crazy, invading everything not covered in concrete. I eventually dug them all up and tossed them. I would not want them again unless in containers. But they ARE pretty...

Wow. Nice job! That is a beautiful pond/stream.
