We had a few little jobs to complete the pond garden. One of which was to try out some pots under the heads of Pan and Bucca on the trellis.
We had put these trellis stone pots below the heads with although nice were quite low. We knew we had four higher blue glazed pots, two standing either side of the seating in the flower garden.
So, Paul moved these then stood one of the blue pots in place and it was a much better size. Naturally it only had an old trailing plant in each one, so needed completely re potting, so another trip to the garden centre!
Here you can see the blue pot in place replanted with a nice red leafed grass, two geraniums and a dahlia. We also moved two of the smaller agapanthus pots to stand around it.
and same planting in the pots on this side.
So now a nice splash of colour in each corner.
The other two pots are either side of the bench at the other end but this time they have Heucheras in, instead of the grasses.
action shot of the fountain working, it is solar powered.
We found this little bird water dish when we were buying the plants for the pots, we have placed it here for now, so the birds can get water.
Still a few paving stones to add here and there but it's done.
