Our bog is a shallow strip of water on both side of the pond,
it's filled with pea gravel for planting.
Here is a view looking down the length of it
with pickerel weed in the foreground.

Here is an other view of the pond,
looking down into the water.
The water is 4.5 feet deep.
Here is a close-up of the Siberian Iris.
It's not a flower but..
when you are by the pond the Koi all swim over
to see whats going on and to beg.
Here is the hungry mouth of a Koi
begging to be fed.
Today I am joining Todays Flowers
come see beautiful flowers from all around the world!
Thanks for stopping by,

I have heard these guys munching crackers, and it's wild. They trust us, I think. Beautiful post.

I like all your pictures. The Siberian Iris look very elegant, standing proudly among the leaves. The koi fishes are so lively.
I don't know what I would do to have pond added to my urban paradise... ;) Oh I want one just like yours!
