In the very back of the garden, there was a small stagnant pond that had become a popular home for mosquitoes. The pig statue, which was supposed to be a fountain for the pond, was often turned off, and the corner was dark and ignored.
Keyes and his crew removed the pond, and planted an Amelanchier canadensis tree, which is native to the area. Keyes points to the importance of choosing trees that fit the size of your garden; in this case, a small tree was needed to match the dimensions of the garden.
