schleng is an unknown quantity at this point
Exciting Project - Continued

Well, we are finally getting there. Planting won't be installed until the Spring. At this point, irrigation and sod will be done by next week, along with balance of fencing.

This has to be one of the most exciting projects I have done...the vanishing edge is amazing. The waterfall was touch and go, but I think it is working out.

I have to revisit the planting design, but at this point I have a few River Birch and a Cryptomeria behind the waterfall, along with shrubs and perennials.

The travertine pavers still have to be sealed. The color is beautiful. It's washed out in the images.

The tanning shelf is the circular area which is shallow. It's covered with River-Rok.

Anyway, I thought I would post some pictures. It's come a long way from the first ones!
