New Look at the Poway Nursery


There's a lot of activity happening at the front of Walter Andersen Nursery's Poway store. Over the last few days, customers have been greeted with piles of dirt, rocks and earth moving equipment. Look hard and you'll find a personalized piece of rock that explains it all.

The rock, emblazoned, with Aqua Designs, the name of a local waterscape company is so far the only discernable thing in the pile. The folks at the company, along with owner, Bob Eitelman, are building a pondless waterfall to showcase a new feature they have been building. Sure enough, once completed, the structure will look like a waterfall, but without the pool of water you normally see with that formation. A pondless waterfall is a water feature that looks and sounds like a natural stream complete with rocks, pebbles and stone. Water is circulated through a self-contained pump and pipe system over a sealed streambed of natural rock, pebbles and stone. This water feature does not require a hook-up to a water system or discharge into a storm water system.

We can't wait to show you the finished new landscape feature which is expected to be completed the week of Jan. 12. Better yet, come in and see if for yourself.
