Taking a water garden and landscape project from concept, to design, to reality. Neptune's Water Gardens Omaha Nebraska

Landscape Designer Jason Heller of Neptune's Water Gardens brought this client's dreams of a backyard oasis to reality. Overcoming site challenges, working around other contractor's schedules, and dealing with change orders is the norm on a project this size. In the end, the client received a water garden that became the focal point of the backyard entertainment space. A low maintenance landscape was installed to provide the customer with an experience where they can spend their free time enjoying their landscape instead of working on their landscape.

Wow. Beautiful work. And not at all what I would expect from an Omaha yard (and that's not a CU Buffalo picking on Husker-land - I wouldn't expect that around here either).

Ha ha ha Steve. You'd be surprised at what we have here in what used to be known as Cow Town. The Stock Yards are gone and we've gone fancy! :^D
Great work by the way Neptune's Water Gardens. Would love something like that in our back acre. Maybe someday.

This was actually installed in Lincoln, NE. We have installed quite a few projects in Washington County NE, here is a picture of one in Ft. Calhoun.

Wow is right! What a beautiful backyard koi pond! Thank you for showing the design, then the barren area, and finally the completed project. What an amazing landscape transformation. You said it's in Lincoln, Nebraska? Gorgeous!

Oh wow Neptune, that one is gorgeous too. Our back acre is mostly down hill ending in what is listed as "wetlands" on our neighborhood map so when we first bought the land I dreamed of a stream with many little water falls going down the hill to the wetlands making them in another larger stream. Other than last summer, it's always been to mushy and wet to keep mowed. Hubby wants to just add some sort of boring drainage system/rock ...»
along the damp areas in hoping it will drain better. Though I'm normally a very practical person, that just doesn't work for me.
