According to a poll taken by USA Today ( July 11, 2002 ), water features were the number one thing homeowners wanted to add to their property within the next year.
People love water gardens because they are soothing, tranquil, and are a haven of rest. In a day and age where you are constantly bothered with computers, cell phones, and faxes, it’s very soothing to have a place to relax and get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

A water garden is a simple water feature, better known as a pond. Now, don’t think it’s like one of those cement, mucky, dirty-looking green fishponds you may have seen before. It is a living ecological entity. It can have a waterfall, stream, rocks, water lilies, sea vegetables, underwater lights, and of course, beautiful fish.
Despite what you might think, water gardens are clean and low maintenance. You can maintain one in as little as 20 minutes a week. You don’t even have to feed the fish. Mother Nature takes care of everything. It doesn’t matter if you have a big backyard or a small one. Video - Pond Maintenance |
