Re: Cult: Pond and Iris Pictures


Thanks for the diagram John.  I understand know how you did this.  One more
question for you, with your bog area  3 1/2 feet wide do you have any trouble
reaching the plants farthest away from the pond bank area?  I can just see my wife
leaning/streaching out and going in face first!  :)  Another question, how deep is
the soil in the bog area?

Thanks, Glenn
