I have a wet back yard and talked to some landscapers at the garden show
last weekend about ponds. Some people suggested lily pads and koi; the
koi, they say, eat algae. Of course, herons and such find out about your
koi and slurp! But you migh check ideas out at the library, arboretum or
with landscapers whose specialty is yard ponds. - Irene, Seattle CD
