This exquisite design titled Impressions in Water was the creation of Kristin Kolberg-Crucchiola.

"For years, I have enjoyed the famous “water lily” paintings by Monet. I loved the saturated colors, reflections of light and shimmering movement. Alas, my own sad, little water garden never met these expectations. In this fantasy garden, I bring Monet to life and create the garden of my dreams. Think of it as Impressionist art in the medium of flowers."
