    The gravel finishes the look around your greenhouse, I can just imagine how colourful and beutiful it will be come spring 💐🐝💖 for your pond make sure you put rocks so little creatures like headhogs and field mice can climb out if they fall in it 🐀🦔💖

      @lianapalumbo8457 2 года назад +1

      Yes, placing rocks or turtle ledges and then mould chicken wire around the edges so the little animals can grab onto it and climb out 😊

    I highly recommend putting in a submersible pond pump at this point in order to sort out where you need to lay the cable and plug it in. It makes a big difference to the water quality when it's being aerated and it's also lovely to have the sound of a mini fountain going when sitting out in the summer. Speaking from experience our cats also loved drinking out of our pond when they could reach the pumped water 😁. Love what you've done with the garden so far!

    I just wanted to tell you how much I love Ireland. My daughter and I went 3 years ago. We landed in Dublin, rented a car and drove all over (Wexford, down south, Cork and Kerry and up through Galway almost to “The North” and back to Dublin. Loved it. I live on the North West coast of the U.S. and we have a very similar climate to yours.

    Your yard is going to be lovely. The hard part is done so now all winter you can plan you plants and decorations for the yard. Such sweet brothers you have to come and help you. The platform to put in there is usually advertised for pools for frogs, squirrels, etc. Can't wait to see your yard all in bloom next year. I will be looking forward to your book too.

    We put a pond in our garden a couple of years ago. We love it. My husband spends so much time messing about with it and changing where the fountain and stones and plants go. The best place for pond plants is the Newlands Cross garden centre. You can get your fish there too. We get loads more birds in the garden now and once we saw a frog.

    Congratulation, again, on your book release. It shows the availability date in the US, at Barnes and Nobles, is July 30, 2022. 📖 When I plan projects, I always think I can get more done than is practical. You gave me a flashback.😊When you opened your kitchen door and started talking about all the stuff you planned to do in the backyard, I felt suddenly stressed and overwhelmed.....Just for a second.... then I took a deep breath in relief, remembering it was you guys and not me. 😇 The backyard looks awesome and I can imagine the plethora of blooms that will be on display in spring and summer. 🌸

  • @kitchenworker446

    Looks great... well done brudders!! Congratulations on your book Catherine. Just a tip...frogs return to the area they were born to breed and leave frog spawn so in spring if you can get a bit of frogspawn locally and put it in your pond, the frog spawn will turn into frogs and they will come back to your pond to breed the year after!
