<p>Gretchen&#8217;s new low water garden is full of suprises! We added a seasonal garden that requires little water. Along with textures I added the California Blue Iris which Gretchen calls a &#8216;gift&#8217;! We had fun adding different plants that come and go in the garden. Gretchen enjoyed so much she sent me this picture</p>

<p>Dear Kathy and Crew&#8211;Thank you so much for Monty the Turtle&#8217;s little pond!</p>
<p>We love his  pond too.  The sound of the waterfall near the bedroom window lulls Don and I  to sleep each night. Monty seems to think he is Hawaii&#8211; wondering around his private oasis.</p>
<p>Thanks so much for all your time and effort.</p>
<p>Fondly&#8211; Cindy,Don (and Monty!)</p>
