The pond dug last year on plot one has proved such a success that another has been dug on our new half plot. It has a lump of yellow flag iris in the pond along with some oxygenating weed and has been planted round with more flag iris, verbena, achilea, echinacea and michaelmas daisy. A pile of logs will be added as a hidey hole for beetles and amphibians.It has been filled with rainwater from one of the 1ooo litre IBC's and it holds about 80 gallons. Hopefully it will attract frogs and toads to spawn.
