Front Entrance Water Feature Design
The front entrance of this home is elevated several feet above
the driveway, making it an ideal site for a waterfeature. Instead of building a set of steps with retaining walls and
plantings, Pete designed a water feature that includes a streambed and several ponds supported by EP Henry coventry double
sided retaining walls. The largest pond supports fish in addition to acquatic plants. The water feature can
be viewed from various locations and offers guests a visual and audible experience when visiting.
The Weeping Norway Spruce above the upper pond is a year round focal point for this
water feature. Other plants such as the Daylily and Petunia provide summer flowers.
