Chris, your pond looks so health, do you have any tips for us.

Hi Ams. I think the water lilies help a lot. The main thing is to have a lot of the pond shaded for much of the day. In do have to fish out blanket weed every few weeks in the summer. Sunlight encourages the weed and I suspect our hot weather does too. I don't keep fish because we are often away. All wildlife are welcome though.

Thanks Chris, I recently bought a small water feature just to experiment with aquatic plants, oxygenating and marginal plus water hyacinth. I still get algae even though there is hardly any free space. Yesterday I found a big frog has moved in, I love frogs.

Very lovely and natural looking - l like the way you have grass right down to the water's edge.
