This Western Garden Design Award celebrates SSA’s sustainability and ecological designs.
A miniature wildlife sanctuary complete with pond and native boulders was created to blend into the natural woodland surrounding while giving homeowners a peaceful place to enjoy.
The pond is designed as a focal point in the garden and as a large bird bath with shallow, gently sloping edges to encourage birds to bathe and splash.
Planted with a wide variety of water plants and home to Koi, goldfish, and snails, the pond contributes greatly to the success of neighboring wildlife. Many bird species, squirrels, and chipmunks visit the garden on a regular basis.
