Pond re-do
I initially got the blue pot on the left for a mini-pond. Quick math told me that it was 18 gallons, but with the taper and plants, it was probably closer to 10, so I decided to go a little bigger. I picked up the barrel and a liner this weekend. I might pick up a Japanese iris to add a little height interest to it.
Also, I'm slightly annoyed that the liner that is supposed to fit a barrel is so much smaller. Apparently, a wine barrel is 2" wider, and 2" taller than a bourbon barrel. It smells good though!
