We took advantage of some end-of-the-season specials and picked up a Japanese maple and a nice hydrangea bush.The maple replaces the one I accidentally killed last year. It has a natural bend to it, so I planted it near the upper pond with the intent of it eventually overhanging the water and forming a visual frame for the pond.
We placed the hydrangea down in the yard next to one of the stone walls to fill that area in.
