Don’t blink š Itās #Waterfallwednesday again! I have been going through photos putting together a slideshow presentation for a wonderful group of local gardeners. I just really enjoy looking back at projects we have been involved in! Especially when I get to use the information to help others who are interested in our wonderful hobby of water gardening!
So since I have a few pictures at hand, I will post several Waterfalls for you today! All designed and installed by the team at Carters Nursery, Pond & Patio!
I hope these images lift your day! All of these are in a clients backyard paradise and I just bet you that they are sitting out there right about now, enjoying the sight and sound of their own private Waterfall.
Have a great #Waterfallwednesday!

I wanted to share a couple of pictures we took last night while we were messing around in the garden.
Thats what its all about! Getting outside and having an enjoyable evening most any season of the year! That is one of the things I always try to achive with my designs, I try to design Gardens that have year round interest!
So, I hope you have been enjoying this beautiful Fall weather we have had… And I hope you enjoy this little glimpse of my Water Garden on a Moonlit š Indian Summer night in Autumn š

I was getting ready to post my #waterfallwednesday picture of the day on here this morning and a Facebook Memory popped up… So, I decided to use this Memory Picture from several years back. Its a simple waterfall, but still one of my favorites even after all these years š The moss has grown over rocks and the plants have all matured so nice. It feels so natural.
Get out there and enjoy the day! Half the work week is gone… #Waterfallwednesday

Can you believe how fast this Summer is passing by… Itās already Waterfall Wednesday!
Todays Waterfall goes back a ways… We first built this Waterfall around 27 years ago š¤©
Recently we did a little āFacelift Workā on it and we all think it turned out great šš»
They still have most of the original Koi that we put in the pond all those years ago š¤© And boy have they grown!
#Waterfallwednesday is always a great day! Especially when you looking back at something you did so long ago š
Have a Great Day!
PS: I can almost see the weekend from here…

Yep, itās #throwbackthursday once again and this memory just popped up in my Facebook feed and provided the perfect inspiration. Aquatic plants are some of my favorites! And this beauty is hard to beat ā¤ļø
Say hello to – Nymphaea ‘Red Flare’
This night-blooming lily produces magnificent magenta red, flowers that are held high above the waters’ surface. These fragrant blooms can stand 7″ to 10″ tall š¤© Did I mention that they also bloom at night? Yes, the blooms open in late evening and bloom all night and into the early morning. A total show stopper!
Well, thatās my offering for Throwback Thursday!
Have a great evening š

Water features are popping up everywhere and it seems everyone wants a backyard Pond or Water Feature.
Water features come in many forms… Bubbling Fountains, Pondless Waterfalls, Ornamental Koi Ponds and so much more! My single biggest request is to design and install Custom Residential Watergardens and Ponds! Everyone wants their own personalĀ Oasis! And Why Not? They add so much to your life. But remember, If itās worth doing , itās worth doing right.
Like any project you undertake , you should first do some research and gather info .
ā First , look around at some local Water Features and talk to some people who have one in their life. Identify some interesting design elements that you like and may want to incorporate into yours. Streams, bridges, lighting, fish caves, waterfalls, jets, etc, etc…
āĀ Go on a Pond Tour! Thereās no better way to see some awesome Watergardens and talk to actual Pond owners than on a Pond Tour ! I have been on dozens of Pond Tours all over this country and thereās no better way to learn about what its like to have a Waterfall in your own backyard than on a good Pond Tour! In fact, we have our Annual āMoonlight Pond Tourā coming up on Saturday, September 18th.! See some gorgeous Ponds and Waterfalls with extensive night lighting. You will find Inspiration and ideas galore! š„
ā If and when you need some help with your design, call a professionalĀ Pond Designer! When I need help outside of my Specialty, and I want something done right the first time, thatās what I do. AND – Be choosy! Make sure your dealing with a qualified Waterfeature Specialist ( like a C.A.C. ā Certified Aquascape Contractor ), PS: itās probably NOT the guy mowing your grass… Check references! Look at Their work (older and more recent)! And Always get a written contract! I have successfully installed thousands of Water Features over the last 32 years and would be more than happy to help you in your quest for the perfect Backyard Water Feature!
Getting a Backyard Pond is one of the most rewarding things you will ever do for yourself!
Viva Laā Ponds!
