Building an Ecosystem with a Recreational swim pond - Planting Niches everywhere!

3 years ago

I wanted to do a thorough update of the pond, some of the plantings in and around the pond. Although this video is about the pond, I talk about a lot of the plants, and the different niches they are enjoying. This can help you decide if you want to add these plants to your food forests based on your own climate conditions and niches. What is doing well in the hot sunny rocky areas? What is doing well in the cooler shadier woodland areas? What is doing well in areas with wet saturated soils? You can take this information and apply it to your own land.

I think this video should have something for everyone. Let me know if you want more pond videos in the future. Water is life.
