Waterfall ideas??

Two formal ponds: first has upflow thru lava rock, mats, veggies, then spills over a large stone. Second has water spilling out of three holes in brick wall

I used a scrap piece of liner over some concrete to form this small waterfall. I also used a nice piece of stone to make the small trickle water fall. The songbirds like to drink & bathe there.

Hi David, I tried to post pictures of my water fall but got an error message saying they had already been posted and I guess I cant post them again. So here is the link to the pictures posted earlier.

Mike, thats one big cascade you've got there!

Is that a Cedrus Liibani Glauca to the right of the cascade?

close, , C. atlantica glauca, tis big but we transplanted it to its pictured location. Craziest thing at that house was that they loved Lavender, so we planted a few, ( 1,000 to be exact ) for a mnere 13 dollars each :d yeah they spent money, pond is large, liner was 80 by 120 feet and ther is an additional seperate pond at the other end that has another 9500 gph rated flow ate head. That second one tucks in around his putting green and then meanders river falls fashion to join the main pond.
