Waterfall and Stream
MOUNTAIN VIEW NURSERY AND LANDSCAPING LLC


The following pictures and those on the next page show the results of the efforts of Harvey, Ricky and the rest of the crew at Mountain View Nursery and Landscaping. In the words of the owner,

"Once the project started every day was more exciting than the last. Ricky and his crew did a great job on the patio and fireplace while Harvey and his crew did an amazing job on the waterfall and stream. Harvey's knowledge of plant materials and use of large scale plants brought it all together. It is hard to tell what is new and what has always been there. Harvey had one last surprise for us. He did the most fabulous lighting. It is magical! The up lights on the trees give a sense of enclosure to the patio and the underwater lights in the waterfall just sparkle. The entire project turned out more beautiful than we ever imagined."

After designing the landscaping and planting the beautiful flowers and shrubs surrounding their house and along the entrance to their property, the owner's dream for the remainder of their property included a constantly flowing stream, an outdoor fireplace and an "outdoor room" where family and friends could gather by the fireplace on a cool mountain evening or where the owners could enjoy their morning coffee with nothing but the gentle bubbling noise of the stream in the background. They shared their dream with Harvey Burniston Jr. and Ricky Hansen of Mountain View Nursery and Landscaping, LLC. They asked that the landscape blend into their existing gardens and native plants and trees and that the materials used fit in with their rustic log home.
The outdoor room is a great place to visit with friends and warm by the fireplace during cool crisp mountain evenings. The gentle sound of running water produced by the nearby waterfall and stream provide a soothing background for any occasion

The large waterfall flows from huge boulders located behind the outdoor room and fireplace and creates a fast moving stream that wanders beside the outdoor room, under the foot bridge and continues near the edge of the property. This water feature is comprised of all natural materials including river rock, large boulders from nearby mountains and natural aquatic plants. The water runs down the waterfall and through the stream 24 hours a day and is illuminated during the evening hours with strategically placed LED lights.
