Watergardens & Koi Ponds
We specialize in the design and installation of all types of water features including water gardens, Koi ponds, fountains, streams, waterfalls and swimming pool landscapes.
|
Creative designs tailored to your individual needs and unique site conditions. |
A water garden or koi pond is a wonderful
addition to your landscape. Using natural
stone and aquatic
ornamental plantings you can create a paradise that is a relaxing lush
habitat. Your pond will attract birds, frogs, and dragonflies as well as
provide the relaxing sound of moving water in your landscape.
Effective design and filtration ensures low maintenance and consistent
water quality. (All water gardens take maintenance, but it should not
be an uncomfortable chore.) Your water garden will be a strong focal
point in your landscape. We can make sure that it looks great and functions
consistently.
At Down to Earth we can create a custom watergarden for you and your surrounding landscape. Whether you need a small fountain near the back patio to add the sound of water or a 25,000 gallon Koi pond to raise prized show quality Koi we can design a water garden to fit your needs. There is a big difference in a true "koi pond" and a "water garden". We can walk you through the differences and help decide which best suits your needs. Go to our "contact page" to email us any questions you may have about water gardens or to just let us know you are interested in more information.
Here's a link to a thread on KoiPhen that follows a current koi pond and landscape installation . (we love all the flattering comments too! You may need to log on to view the pics)

Ben setting a W.Lim bottom drain in place. (No, not the cheesy "pond guy" thumbs up... I was pointing at the trench behind me)
