I am planning on building a bog garden in my back yard. I read that
some people dig and lay the hole up with cheep lining or they poke holes into the liner to keep the water drained. I was planning on using a good heavy liner and NOT making holes at the bottom. My reason being that eventually I want to use the bog garden as a filter for a future pond. Any comments????!!!! |

Sounds good to me Richard.
I am planning on this myself when I expand in the spring. Not a bog but a veggie/filter that feeds to the waterfall that feeds the pond. Priss "Richard Holub" wrote in message link.net...

Richard,
water lettuce and water hyacinth work great to help keep the water clear. If you can find a couple at a nursery they will multiply quickly. It will be probably a month before you find any though.
