Pond Walks

Welcome to the Illiana Garden Pond Walk 2005

Munster, Indiana

House #5

Date of Creation: 2002  •  Size of Pond: 11 x16 x 24"
Number of Gallons: 1,500  •  Inhabitants: Goldfish and frogs

Allen Landscaping of Shererville installed this pond and the flagstone paths that run througout the garden. At one time this half acre yard was one hundred percent grass. Now the grass only encompasses a very small portion much to the delight of the owners. The gardens are comprised of both native plants as well as 1500 bulbs, perennials, annuals, trees and shrubs. This yard also was certified by the National Wildlife Federation as a backyard wildlife habitat in 2004. "Our yard was created, so that we wouldn't have to go somewhere else to enjoy nature," says the owners.
