Create Your Own Backyard Retreat
Few
things can add to a backyard's ambiance like a water feature. Ideally,
getting away from it all would simply be a matter of stepping out the
back door and spending a little time by your water garden. Listening to
the soft sounds of rippling water and watching the graceful movements
of the fish as they weave in and around the plants is my favorite way
to unwind after a busy day. From a simple pond to an elaborate waterfall,
water features offer beauty, tranquility, and even a boost to wildlife
and the environment. In their simplest form, a water feature may consist
of an easily installed, inexpensive preformed pond. Preformed ponds are
manufactured from black plastic or fiberglass in a variety of sizes and
shapes, typically 3 to 6 feet across and 12 to 18 inches deep, although
sizes as large as 12 feet are available. Most preformed ponds are one-piece,
but some of the larger ones come in sections that are assembled on site.
Many people think that water gardening is difficult because water gardens
look so exotic. But nothing could be further from the truth. If you follow
a few simple rules, it's fall-down easy. |
