Create a water garden

Article Gallery: 

Being a vital component of life, water has been since the beginning of gardening not only a condition for its existence but a main compositional factor.
 
The reflection of the sky and the images of plants in a pond, or the gurgling sound of a water fountain add a special charm to a garden.
 
The size of a pond must never be larger than 25% of the total garden area.

 
The shape of a pond should usually follow the shape of the garden.
 
On larger ponds you can emboss the wideness of the water by contrasting it with an island. Round or elongated, covered in vegetation, they make beautiful visual benches.
 
You can connect the island to the shore with a bridge, adding beauty and charm to your garden.

 
The depth of the pond should depend on various factors, such as local regulations, pond destination or construction type.
