Note: We no longer have an onsite Water Garden at Village Nursery.

Helpful Hints
Every season add the proper plant tabs to feed those plants that are containerized for maximum beauty.
Our pond is approx 1500 gallons 7 x 9 x 4′ deep, liner 20′ x 20′, underpad, 4000gph pump, 4000gph bio force filter.
Natural Filtration – build an extra more shallow pond above your watergarden and line it on the bottom. Use 2-3″ rock 2nd level & 3rd level use smaller rock each time. Use coarse gravel to fill in around these rock to resemble a natural stream. Plant water plants around the edge.
