Synopsis

Waterfalls pouring from a stone wall onto rocks below. Water jets spurting over a pond. A small fountain splashing and bubbling onto a pebble base. Who can resist the calming appeal of water? You don’t have to: it’s easy to bring this dazzling feature into your garden, thanks to the sound advice and full color photographs packed into this inspirational, practical guide. It’s an invaluable reference for every aspiring water gardener, with all the construction instructions and facts on liners, pumps, filters, season-by-season maintenance, and projects. After learning how to get started, you’ll find out about extras to include, cleaning the water, adding hardy fish, keeping koi, and attracting wildlife. An illustrated A-to-Z directory of water plants rounds out the discussion.
