Honestly at first i thought it would look kinda weird, like a volcano in the middle of ur front yard. But u knocked it out of the park with all the Beautiful plants and logs/tree branches 👌

[@Pantyseller1]

When winter comes and the plants die, it will be back to a weird volcano

[@tomsgreengallery]

You know, my absolute favorite part about this build is that you put so much effort into using resources that people generally throw away. Fantastic use of the logs and cut branches to help with stabilization of the pond itself. That AND you tied them all together to make it look like what it is. Amazing work on this pond, I love the ingenuity. Great job my friend 🎉

[@roctanepemp5560]

this dude is somehow hood and hippy simultaneously. I dig it. lol

[@sherrydemastes5856]

I think your excitement in this project was what made it worth watching

[@PondNovice]

Never enough ponds ❤

[@BMor888]

This was such a great video! The commentary had me in stitches😂 The verbiage was top tier, thank you❣️ "Earth is my Plan-et"

[@ChrisMiller-ov9md]

My dude!!!!! You are truly an inspiration!! I started losing my passion for doing things in my yard, but ever since I started watching your videos my passion has come back. Thank you for all you do!!!

[@Rhondas_Flippin_Life]

Beautiful! I got the same pond for $25! A store was going out of business and I scored big time. The pump was included in the sale too! I purchased it over the winter and now watching you do the magic you just did you've inspired me to get to working on mine.

[@paulplantu]

$25 is a great deal!!! I definitely recommend you put your pond in ground, building up around it is way more work than digging if you can.

[@bobbyfreeman2777]

Now dis is art...gotta have a eye and creativity for dis!

[@mattienelson8620]

"Earth is my planet too!" I love the outdoors, I love water! You've given me a little more confidence to try this in my yard!"🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@SuperMontsta]

If you're worried about predators, just used a wire mesh right on the surface of the water. Keeps the fish in and any predators out.

[@RefreshWithLillian]

Oh my gosh I’m so excited that you built a pond in the front yard. Last year I looked at your backyard pond and I went and built a beautiful pond in my backyard yard. I had your video playing, it turned out great! I emailed you the pictures. Now I want to do a front yard pond! Great job Paul!

[@paulplantu]

Wait, what is your email. I may have missed them

[@margievaughan2456]

Looks amazing. I would never have thought you could build up & make it look like it belongs there. You did a fantastic job creating such a beautiful space love all the plants as well.

[@paulplantu]

Thank you, building it up definitely is more difficult and resource intensive for sure

[@suehaynie4876]

❤ love to watch you build these times and shows your love of nature by chance are you a landscaper you seem to have a huge knowledge of plants my daughter wants to have a pond in her front yard to I'm thinking about that for

[@quki3]

🤩🫶🏻 by far, your pond exceeded my expectations.. the plants, the stones…I need a pond in my life. My guppies would love it! ❤

[@TakusenX]

Love love love this build, Paul! You're giving me so much inspiration and motivation for when I eventually build my own first pond : ) I'm so excited!!

[@paulplantu]

Getting started is sometimes the hardest part tbh! Start small and work your way up to something bigger is my recommendation!

[@TakusenX]

@@paulplantu Thank you so much! That is exactly what I was thinking of doing : ) Especially since I'm doing it completely on my own! I already have the spot picked out and have been researching and planning! I'll probably wait until next spring or so to add fish just to make sure the pond does well and keep away the kitties who live outside : ) Thank you so much for your videos, Paul! You've been so helpful this past year in helping me beautify the house we bought!

[@michellepollino4986]

Oh Paul at first I thought what is he doing, but you made a beautiful master piece of a pond and garden paradise for wild life. Very creative, amazing and just stunning. I love it!

[@alabamadirtygirl]

This is the best pond build I've seen period. I've been wanting to build one but all of the diy pond pics I've seen have not been really inspiring. Your pond build is spectacular! ❤

[@lopezelba1]

This was so beautiful! I imagined some woodland fairies peeping through. Just gorgeous.

[@nopetfout5426]

Not me gaslighting myself into thinking I can do this😂😂😂😂 thanks for the inspiration though!❤

[@greerjaquasia15]

This was the most beautiful thing. I usually skip to the main build but I was immersed from start to finish. Real definition of being creative and just using whatever you have! Great job man!

[@TheAlvinvision]

Your pond builds are beautiful! You are such an inspiration and so much fun to watch!

[@ctrlaltdel1269]

It's always a pleasure watching your vids. When I think a garden isn't in the budget, you and lowes' clearence plants give me hope! Thanks for the awesome content.

[@Sacredwondergarden]

Fantastic!! Love the use of native plants and consideration for wildlife.

[@kscmad]

All i can say is WOW!!!! I love your videos, thank you for sharing all of your wonderful ideas and hard work.

[@asamoes3179]

Love how far you've come, definately looking forward to future builds.

[@averageday]

The amount of variety your pond has! Amazing! The bees and bugs will be very happy :)

[@mollyrm]

Absolutely love the way the pond came out!! The wood logs really make the finishing look. Looks like something out of a fantasy movie

[@paulplantu]

Thank you!! Yeah the logs helped out tremendously

[@macheradickison4949]

It turned out gorgeous. Great inspiration! Now I want one!

[@8thLifeARC]

Always mad inspiring watching these!

[@melissacrockett1095]

I started watching your channel from your last (first) pond build. I can tell you've learned what you like. This is super beautiful. 👏🏻 👏🏻 👏🏻

[@boldpicturesgardeners]

This pond structure is beautifully, u made justice to it ❤❤

[@sjustice3487]

Loving this build!! ❤ can't wait to see the updates on it.

[@ethelwalter6686]

What a beautiful pond build. Loved the process. ❤

[@ladyliz7]

This came out amazing! The hubs and I are getting ready to completely redo and expand our pond area. Given that we're just a couple hours from Houston, along the coast, your use of native plants only has inspired me to do the same! Planting can be hit or miss here, given the extreme temps. Thanks for sharing!

[@Leelongostyle]

Good job filming while creating. When you watch yourself work this hard twenty years from now, you will really appreciate this beautiful pond. It is amazing!

[@IllyMooncat]

WOWZA Paul. That looks absolutely INSANE. Gorgeous, gorgeous water feature! Thanks for showing us the process!

[@ClaudiaSandigo]

It looks fantastic and I'm inspired to try a small one in my backyard.

[@jasonlewallen9233]

Of all your beautiful projects (and I watch them all!), this is the one with the most immediate, high-impact visual appeal. What I'm saying is, it looks great! I'm inspired!

[@marissashamalamabingbong2272]

This video inspired me I’ve been wanting a pond! It looks amazing!

[@lindonald2087]

Stunning.

[@Treegrower]

That turned out awesome! Looks amazing with all the plants grown in. I'm sure the wildlife is gunna love it too.

[@reshmaresh4117]

Appreciate your efforts on reusing whatever things you could 👍

[@kimberlygonzalez1914]

You are so talented! Your videos inspire me to have my own outdoor pond and bring wildlife to my home❤

[@dustingarcia7144]

Plantu doing it again! I watch all your videos and Appreciate all your work. You’ve got a way of spicing up areas in ways you wouldn’t expect. And being here in the Houston area, I get a lot of plant ideas from your info. Thanks for the knowledge

[@EZ.SJ8892]

a beautiful pond with fish in it and surrounded by interesting plants and flowers, what more can I say, a beautiful work of art for good mind therapy

[@jahnis.ttownsend9094]

WOW!! Beautiful.

[@a11s10h08]

Wow! Love it! 🌿

[@DidisFINDen]

This is the coolest way to build an above ground pond...thanks for the inspiration...

[@paulplantu]

Thanks for watching!

[@TheLittleSindyMuseum]

Wow! I must say I think that big root did you a great favor! It looks absolutely amazing like that and you can see so much more of each plant when they are viewed in levels and not on a flat spot. 👏😍🙌 Well done Paul! Love from Sweden, Martina 😊

[@tinah.2593]

What a beautiful pond!

[@marcuswhitmore6622]

Great job, looks amazing and will continue to get even better with age.

[@jacksondoughty]

Ridiculously creative. Gorgeous.

[@JohnCastro-vn5xj]

Master gardener at hand 😂

[@andreaguptill7636]

Amazing work! Gorgeous! You do inspire me to keep trying to upgrade my yard over here sourh of San Antonio. You always telling us what plants you are using helps give me ideas of what to look for. Thanks and keep up the great work!

[@liquid3600]

This is one of your sickest projects yet. Looked like a lot of work but my gawd it be looking majestic

[@aniyahcymone8730]

I came here for some inspiration for my DIY pond and hoping to give my turtle a cool tropical oasis… lol mannnnn… this has exceeded my expectations. The commentary, the insight, the aesthetics… let me go ahead and see what I can find for free.99 to start the process. 😅

[@franciscoo.8656]

You Sir. Are an artist. Great Job. 👏

[@dornacarliste8626]

Very inspiring man! I love your energy and imagination! Looking forward to seeing the fish!❤

[@tiffanyforester6432]

[@UGnnaLearnToday.]

[@AllenHoliday666]

This man is a complete master 🙌🏽

[@catiepower3550]

Awesome!! I have two ponds. One in a whiskey barrel and another surrounded by retaining wall bricks. I have fish in just one but I think I’ll put fish in the other one. Really enjoy them.

[@almedamarujepaloysali2143]

I love your pond. Keep up the good work.

[@katestephens5650]

Truly amazing. Love your use of the logs and found materials. It looks stunning.

[@paulplantu]

Thanks! I’m just cheap tbh 😂

[@_drian]

DUDE!!! 😍🤯 Outstanding job!!

[@TyRich03]

Love the green pump I put one of those in a 29g bio cube through a Uv sterilizer flow was amazing water stayed crystal clear

[@sarahab145]

My dude you have outdone yourself

[@caprishion]

Satisfying and so beautiful!!!!!!

[@tetrilys848]

Me, whilst enjoying this video & taking notes: "This guy is a maximalist, isn't he?" Hey, if you're gonna go nuts with something, it might as well be with plants and nature! Heaven knows the wildlife appreciates it! I also got a hard liner on clearance at Lowe's and will be doing something similar :) I've got to tweak some things to make things less permanent, as I rent, but I look forward to trying regardless. Thanks for sharing!

[@jamesa8956]

This came out amazing definitely one of my favorite DIY pond builds I've seen love the way you integrated all of the different plants together to mesh so well!

[@paulplantu]

Thank you so much! That’s one thing a lot of ponds miss are the plants!

[@TheLivingBackyard]

This is so wonderful! Not sure if the fish will make it, with cats and everything that goes outside, but you could probably get more hiding spots as you see fit. Beautiful pond!! 😍🌹🌺🌼🌱

[@ChristineDuval-cy5ck]

I love it built up so you don't have to dig a big honkin' hole!!! All the plants around it is great. I love this "I found this big ass rock on the side of the road'!!

[@jlbrooks74]

That was fantastic. Thanks for posting!

[@beckyboopz1]

Fantastic job!

[@FolseFarms]

Came out amazing! I was watching another video of someone from Texas and they had a front yard pond too.

[@dianne3971]

Great build...liked the use of the tree limbs.

[@Assscrackkp]

So cool to have been watching from the start of your journey really dope Paul Plantu keep it up my boy !!

[@EastonOutdoors]

Can’t wait to see how all the plants fill in! Looks great

[@paulplantu]

Some of them already are huge only a month in! I may honestly have to take some out 😅

[@rootsshootsgardenboots]

That looks GREAT. Love it. Thanks for showing us how you achieved it.

[@paulplantu]

Thanks for the comment! ❤

[@denisewiebrimmer454]

It looks amazing

[@jennykinas3023]

Incredible pond! Great job!

[@Falconurbex]

Look dope bro thanks for the upload i look foward to seeing how it develops over time

[@rickyt3961]

20:11 that looks great! really nice work 👍🏾

[@TacticalCivilianHeadquarters]

Man I gotta build a pound in my back yard. Just cultivated the back to grow a micro clover yard and wild flowers. This heat in Houston has been killing my yard work haha.

[@paulplantu]

Yeah planting in the summer/right before it requires a lot more watering to get the plants established. Just get em through the heat and they’ll be good to go after!!

[@PeanutsPlants]

Looks awesome! I want to do this in my yard!!😃

[@michaelw6193]

Beautiful and job 👍🏾 Love it

[@markmccormick4461]

[@xeno5342]
