Here’s a beautiful “Disappearing Fountain” that we built a few years back. I just love the old Spilling Bowl that creates the uppermost Waterfall. It just feels good… Here’s to Waterfalls!

What day is it? Come on , you know what day it is… That’s right! It’s Throwback Thursday 💥

I don’t know about you, but I could use a little Zen today. I sat by this Pond over the weekend to think about what’s been going on over the last few days. This was my Grandma’s Pond and Waterfall and it really speaks to me when I need a little piece of mind. I hope in this little snippet you will see and hear what I’m talking about.
Within a matter of minutes the sound of the Waterfall and the swimming Koi just melt the tension away. I can feel my heart rate slow and my mind relax. A Waterfall is a Magical thing…
Have a great week!

Saturday nights have changed a bit over the last year… A little less exciting… A little less, well, everything. Until tonight! We finally got to make up for a couple of cancelled vacations and more. We got to go to … Paris! 💥

We even got to eat the most famous of all Parisian foods… Yep, catfish!

I hope your Saturday night was as exciting as mine!
Have a great evening 😊

What exactly is Zen? A client that subscribed to my blog asked me this question the other day at my Garden Center.
Well, I told him Zen can be described several ways… When it applies to the garden it simply means quiet, peaceful feelings.
From the dictionary it’s both a Noun & an Adjective: zen : a state of calm attentiveness in which one’s actions are guided by intuition rather than by conscious effort Perhaps that is the zen of gardening—you become one with the plants, lost in the rhythm of the tasks at hand”.
I can say for a fact, that is the Zen I’m speaking of. It’s a feeling of peace and relaxation that I or you get from waterfalls, koi & gardening in general. Even a sunrise or sunset can give one this feeling 😊

The feeling you get watching the sunset over the water is a Zen feeling. There is something special about water… There is a bit of magic in it…
So many times it’s the setting or focus that helps you achieve this Zen… Another friend sent me a photo that his daughter took of their Waterfall. I think you will feel the Zen form this photo as I did 👇🏻
I hope you all have a wonderful morning and a great week ahead!

We built this Waterfall & Stream feature to have a feeling of Nature & ‘Zen’ as our main goals. It turned out to be a unique Water Feature with great sound & a Zen feel.
PS: The owners LOVE it! Success!
I hope this short video will bring a little ‘Zen’ to your Monday Morning too!

This is a very special Waterfall that was just turned on for the 1st time for a test run. You will see more of this one as a finished product soon. We designed this one to take advantage of a natural spring fed pool and stone formation. It really looks and feels “Natural”, because much of it is 😊 I hope you get the same feeling of Zen that I do from this short video… You even hear the guys laughing in the background at the success of this beautiful Waterfall!
Here’s a picture looking across the Pond of this beautiful feature…
Another week has begun! Enjoy!

I ❤️ Pondless Waterfalls! I love designing them. I love building them. I Love how Low Maintenance they are! I Love the way they change people’s lives! SO, this morning I wanted to share the latest Pondless Waterfall Feature that we just installed.

This new Pondless Waterfall was just turned on for the 1st. Time right before this picture was taken. It looks so natural.
Most of the Mossy Boulders and stones were sourced from a creek on site, which makes it so much easier to create a very natural feel and look.

Creating a natural look and feel has a LOT to do with the materials you use. Moss and lichen add an instant effect to a feature that says, “I’ve been here a while”…
I hope you like this newly built feature, I know the homeowners do 😊 Have a great day!
