Garden Journal - The Stone Pool!

Today marks the garden debut of the Stone Pool! This new water feature is nestled near Daddy's maple tree in the Front Bed. The Stone Pool features a metal cattail sculpture installation and is surrounded by natural sandstone gathered locally from Cacapon Mountain. It is flanked by two small statues and is accessed via a pebble pathway located just before the scotch pine topiary. Already the Stone Pool is a popular destination for Highspire's resident songbirds!
