Tropical Pond - YouTube video

Post by dukeofdoom » Wed Jan 23, 2013 10:26 pm

Very cool video of a tropical pond in someone's backyard.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yffKkL38 ... 7g&index=6

And his garden on trees

[Edit]

Question?

In the first video, from K.A Nguyen, does anyone know what kind of tree that is with the pink / redish flowers? Is that an almond tree?
Also there are three greenish / blue bushes around the pond, what are they?

Holy cow! That's quite the backyard!
Orchids in trees and oranges everywhere.

He'd have trouble finding space to plant a peanut.

Very nice.

Seems to me that Tavi (bananeriu?) in Ontario has a nice pond in his yard, with fish, a little bridge, and palms around it.
Can't find his video.

Here's to all the global warming pushers, may your winters be -30 below and four feet of snow in your driveway. Because I want you happy.

I remember that beautiful pond Tavi, thought it was video.

Yes I remember that video now...you were testing your underwater camera.
Very cool!

Thanks.
