I have a good start to my pond improvement project.
I picked up and dung out stones along a soft edge corner of my pond and began to make a rock garden around my blooming Yucca plants. It will eliminate mowing and weed whacking close to the Yucca plants damaging the Yucca plants as well as allowing me to build a patio stone retaining wall to keep dirt from rolling downhill into the pond and to build a wood deck around the steep hillside allowing a more comfortable sitting and enjoyment along the steep edge of the pond.
