The tones and textures of natural stone brings a beauty to the landscape that manmade materials cannot compare to. Dangle your toes in the cool water on a hot summer afternoon. Your prize pet koi nibble on lettuce you hold for them. Frogs chirp on a cool spring evening. These are the experiences that only a garden pond can bring to your landscape.
Stone Walls & Paths, Garden Ponds & Water Features in the D.C. Metro Area
Stone Walls & Paths
The natural beauty of stone walls and paths has enhanced landscapes for thousands of years. The timeless beauty and varying tones and textures cannot be duplicated by manmade materials.
Pond, Waterfalls & Streams
Meadows Farms constructs both natural and formal water features as well as fish and koi ponds from 25 gallons to more than 25,000 gallons. Most water gardens require less annual maintenance than the same area of lawn. Our designers utilize the best quality components and high-efficiency pond pumps to design and build beautiful, low-care water features.
Streams add interest to the garden pond even when there is not sufficient elevation change to allow for a waterfall. They are ideal for introducing water plants such as Japanese Iris and Sweetflag that thrive on the edges of shallow moving streams.
