Can you have a pond in the midst of trees?

Trees and ponds actually complement each other very nicely.

Trees can be the most interesting plants around your pond.

In the fall they will cause you to empty your skimmer daily.
If it’s a magnolia, you’ll have to empty the skimmer daily in the spring too.

But shade from trees help to discourage algae growth.

And sitting under the shade of a tree, on a hot summer afternoon listening to the sounds of your waterfalls is heavenly.
