It's looking really great Yvie. The equisetum is great for a bit of vertical height. It's one I got right away as my pond is tiny and it gives a bit of evergreen foliage too.
It's surprising how quickly the marginal plants and other planting fills out . You can always add a few things in pots if you think it looks a bit bare. Even a couple of nice big pots on their own would be a good feature temporarily.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
I've got some hostas in pots that might fill some gaps once they get going. Thinking about another project now. Might build some raised beds and have a go at growing some veggies. Never done that before.
No, not so much as a pea. Had raspberry canes in this garden when I moved in but I removed them because they seemed to take over the garden. Still not sure I have a suitable spot yet but watch this space.

It looks really good Yvie. Well done.
Never grown veggies?!?

Amazing work! Gives me ideas for my pond too
So excited, saw the first frog in the pond today!!!
Lucky you
Not sure why, and not investigating it now but Yviestevie, I'm not seeing your photos.
Shame becuase I'm going to start digging soon!
Frogs already? Wow!
Yes all the photos are missing, shame.
Well done
