Right now I know I can simply lead my flexible pipes into a PVC which then discharges somewhere further down the hill, but I'm wondering how I can make the discharge more concealed, and at the same time prevent pests from moving in and silt from building up in. The idea of seeing a 100m PVC simply discharging onto the landscape also doesn't seem very elegant.
Would love to hear how people have solved this issue.
I cannot seem to visualize what this looks like. could you post some picture?
Our pipes are in french drains covered with white washed pea gravel to form walkways.
Can you conceal the pipes or discharge with pretty plants? Rocks to form a waterfall?
