This is on its very beginning stages.
Last summer I built a very small pond. Around 250 gallons...
So far the pond been built and filled and that's about it...
I'm building the waterfall soon and stocking it with goldfish..
Anyhow... since I live in SoCal I figured this would be a great chance to grow some orchids outdoors all year long.
So far I've got some cymbidiums that were on sale for $10.
A green one, a light pink one, a pink one, and a yellow one.
I have plans for a light light almost white pink one.. and a white one... cascading would be cool to.
I also plan on having some of the more hardy laelia's around the pond as well...
I'll keep updating this thread as this pond progresses, but for now here's all the cymbidiums.
Also planned around the pond that aren't orchids are some ferns. An evergreen dwarf azalea. A dwarf blueberry or two, and some mini gardenias. Possibly a fuchsia and simmer Christmas cactus as well...
I'm very open to suggestions for types of orchids to try. And improvements on.. well.. everything.
