Ponds on the Rocks. Award winning garden landscape and water features design & build company is the offspring of the combined creative talents of a husband and wife team – Ron Shapira and Carla Jenkins. It all started one summer when Ron proposed to Carla and learned she wanted a backyard wedding. For his bride to be, Ron built a 70' x 25' waterscape with 3 ponds, 3 waterfalls – lusciously landscaped and populated with Koi. The crowning touch was Ron’s creation of an arbor adorned with stylistic copper fish. A year later, they exchanged vows under the arbor and their creation was named Ponds on the Rocks.
