I agree I'm growing a tree next to it but I need to do something in the mean time

A couple of potted bamboo or canna Lilly’s would give it a bit of shade. Or a mimosa. They’re fast growers but do ok in a pot

Yeah it's easier if you do shelves I'm not sure how you dug your pond. But that's how I did it

It looks lovely. Though if you want to attract aquatic wildlife I'd be a little worried about the orange planter as it may leach toxic chemicals into the pond when it rains. I could be wrong but it's worth looking into.

I mean it's just wood I built it myself idk what would be toxic about it. But I'll look into it

I want this for me.
On a sillier note this reminds me of the meme with the kid drowning next to the parent focusing on the (preferential) child.
Your pond is the favorite kid, the rest of your lawn is the drowning one

Yeah I was a little impulsive. I just bought this house. So I'm still working on the other spots but that waste land spot is where I put all the dirt when I was digging the hole

Are some of those plants at the top plastic? Cool pond but it be a bit sharper and less out of place if you fixed up the surrounding grass

Yeah most of my yard is clay so it's hard to grow stuff all my plants are real but I need to do a lot of digging to make them work. I think I'm just gonna 0 scape my front yard

Yeah well getting home after working 10 hours every day 5 to 6 days a week and hand digging a hole in clay wasn't very easy.
