I've had wildlife ponds in a number of gardens over the years...don't get fish! Let the frogs and salamanders move in. Let the foxes, hedgehogs and whatever is in your area find a place to drink. You'll be amazed at how quickly it naturalizes. Monty Don is right, it's magical!

Our pond is 17 years old. Our frog lived about 16 years. New guy this year. We have fish that are that old too. Old man goldfish is 14” long. We never change the water….the biology of it is self maintained. I’m so jazzed for your garden enthusiasm! Many congrats on your book….I have pre ordered. 💖💖💖💖

@ellascottagecompany2044 2 года назад

Catherine, thank you for keeping us sane and inspired this year. I know I can count on Dainty to the rescue, whether it’s a great garden inspo, craft to try or home sprucing up, you lead the way. Thank you so much for all you do. Merry Christmas and Happiest of New Years!! Excited to follow along on next year’s adventures 💕☺️

@Beruthiel45 2 года назад

I'm a week late. 😣 As a senior great granny in poor health I need to start Christmas sooner than I used to but as usual something always happens to mess up the plans and so I lost sleep to get stuff done and a week later I'm catching up. I do hope you had a lovely Christmas Catherine, and thank you for your videos which have been such a pleasure to watch, and to share your ingenuity and creativity and industriousness. I love them.😘 I'm looking forward to your adventures in 2022. I'm eager to see how the pond comes along. Last week a coyote jumped a 6 foot fence and had a sniff around our back garden before jumping back over the fence and going off on his way. Porcupines have visited too. They're nocturnal and climb trees so they climb the trees outside the fence and come down the trees inside the fence and have a rummage through my flowerbeds. If a hedgehog can find your little hobbit hedgehog house I'm betting it won't be long before you'll have a pond menagerie. Blessings, be safe, be happy. 🤗💖🎄🕊️🇨🇦

Catherine don't worry about the water lily, they shrink away at this time of year and then come spring you will gradually see them finding their way to the surface. Thank you Catherine for an amazing year of super content and it's so good that your year improved as it went along. Have a super Christmas with your family and I look forward to seeing you again in the New Year. Fingers crossed that the frogs find you I am sure they will. Stay safe and have a wonderful time.

I don't know how they find them, but frogs DO find ponds. I've lived here for 17 years and never seen a frog in the garden. I put a small pond and even smaller solar powered fountain in it in the garden this past summer. Within a couple days I had 3 frogs in it! I was ridiculously happy to see them. I hope you have a wonderful Christmas. I'm not celebrating this year since I lost my sister a couple months ago and she was my soulmate.

I did a trough pond this spring ! It's only small 3ft X 1ft ish probably, quite deep, month later 3 frogs !!! maybe ones a toad ? Next door have a very large pond, so may have come from there. Got a small solar fountain,& plants, was lovely through summer, with the birds too, so l'm sure yours will be a great success. Roll on spring, have a peaceful Christmas & joyful New Year.

How exciting! Your pond is going to be lovely. You (and your brothers) worked so hard and I am eager to see how it turns out! I’m visiting my sister in Florida just now for Christmas. She has a huge garden and I was helping her as she thinned and pruned some plants, which she was going to compost or recycle…but when I saw two branches from a Datura I said, “Those look like deer antlers! Can I make a deer for the garden?” I took all her garden debris from cannas, oregano, some vine-y kind of plant with purple flowers and the two atura

@janetbyrne7765 2 года назад

(Continued) and formed a little Christmas deer for the end of the garden. It turned out so cute and she loves it. I had put it next to the oregano in her herb garden, sort of tucked away and she said, “No! Put it in the middle of the fence and show it off!” So I did. Have a lovely Christmas and may this be not just a Happy New Year, but a healthy and productive year for all your gardening projects!

🎄🎀🎄Merry Christmas, Catherine!🎄🎀🎄 For the first time in like a decade, I left it to the last minute. The shops were mad, but I had a vague plan so I came out of it on the other side not too badly. But I saw on one of Mr Carrington's vlogs, he got a festive season planner in a gift exchange and I have decided I need one of those in my life😅 The garden is coming along quite well! I can't wait to see it in it's spring and summer glory. Someone said the plant your neighbour gave you might be an agapanthus, but I'm wondering about that if it's pink. I don't think it's a very common colour, though it's possible. In South Africa, we mostly have shades of purple to blue, and white. But it does look like an agapanthus at a glance. If it is one, then you just got yourself loads more plants rolled into one for the future. And they're quite low maintenance in my experience. I hope you can have a good rest- you deserve it! And that you and your family stay safe and well this festive season🎅🏽🎄✨
