From our dining room I look through our french doors
and see dragonflies fluttering on my lotus blossoms and my beautiful
waterfall that is framed by lush tropical landscape. What is your view?
This time of is the
perfect time to open the windows and let the Orlando, Central Florida
breeze carry the sound of your waterfall through your home.
When
we go on design consultations we are always suggesting that the water
feature be as close to your home as is possible. Why? The closer to your
home the more you are able to enjoy it. Maybe you'll be able to
watch the flowing water as you look out the window while doing dishes or
maybe koi fish will great your guest as they enter your home.
A very popular Orlando, Central Florida landscape enhancement is to add
an ecosystem pond or pondless waterfall onto Florida rooms and lanai's.
This often gives multiple vantage points to view your piece of paradise
from. Would you love to have this view?
This ecosystem pond has many views of the graceful koi and Florida landscape.
