Koi Ponds in Sydney - lots of photos

Post by mrbradleybradley »

Those who know me, know that my first passion is koi. I love bonsai too, and there is an inspiration and spiritual connection within both art forms.

Last year I had the honour of visiting some spectacular Sydney ponds and would like to share these with you. Enjoy

So you did put that article in the last Koi newsletter. Do you want some Louisiana Irises for your ponds?

Hi Penny

I appreciate the offer. I prefer to keep my koi ponds plant free. I am able to keep the water healthier that way.

Best

Some awesome ponds Bradley, thanks for sharing them mate!
Those really big ones - were they built as Koi ponds or dams?

Regards,
Steven
