MODERN WATER FEATURES

The source of modern water features!

Whether you live in a small suburban home or on several acres, you can add a tranquil water feature to your garden landscape. Water features can be as simple as a small modern-style rectangular pool or a large, elaborate pond with a waterfall. Depending upon your property and budget, there's plenty of elements to choose among to create a tranquil water garden. A simple brick or stacked-stone water fountain will provide the peaceful movement and sound of water that will add interest to your landscape. For a more elaborate water feature, choose a landscaped pool that creates a stunning natural yet dramatic statement. A cascading waterfall adds movement and sound as well as aerates the pond for healthy fish and plant life. Lush water lilies add landing pads for frogs and other wildlife while providing bright pink focal points.

With your new water feature established, you will still need to keep your lawn in bloom during the high heat of summer. Watering is often restricted during this time and can be fairly expensive. A great way to save money on watering and be eco-friendly is to practice water harvesting. Water harvesting, the collection of rainwater from roofs, gutters and hardscapes for use at a later time, is a hassle-free and highly effective way to quench your yard's or garden's thirst. It can produce a profound impact; collecting the first quarter inch of rain from a 1000 square foot roof can produce as much as 150 gallons. Options include above ground rain barrels or cisterns, below ground cisterns, or collection through infiltration, where water is guided by grading to collect in a reservoir or pond. If you are just getting started, try a rain barrel, which is a quick and easy way to collect water for use later.

Adding a water feature to your garden is one of the easiest ways to give it a new look and add some extra movement and visual interest. Garden water fountains are available to fit into even the smallest outdoor spaces and are a great way to make your garden more relaxing, even if it is just a tiny space on a city rooftop. The sound of running water is soothing and calming and really increases the natural feeling, however big or small your garden.

Water features can be as simple as a small bird bath or fish pond or can be an elaborate ornate fountain. Running water displays are easy to install, usually requiring just a small pump which is plugged into the mains electricity supply. You can buy ready-made water features or you can create your own by using a pump to guide water through a collection of stones or any other material.
