A great idea to adorn formal water garden ponds is a container of some sort or other, either empty or planted up. This may be as easy as ordinary clay plant-pot, stuffed with geraniums, or whatever you will find or lug home from foreign parts. It is actually easy to pick up some very attractive pots, even during the tourist spots, at good prices, therefore long as they don’t exceed your weight allowance, it will likely be worth the effort of getting it.

One of my favourite gardens includes a large Turkish coffee-pot, of beautifully greened copper, standing by the pool. It turned out rescued from your closing down cafe in a country town and, despite its exotic looks, was greatly in your house on this Hampshire garden.

Some simple urns and pitchers works extremely well, placed on their side. Close to the swimming pool, as being a gentle fountain, with water pouring through the top, and returned, by some discreet piping as well as a submersible pump. The absolute right place to find these include auctions, jumble sales, junk shops, etc. Even quite unpromising shapes can be used the foundation to your skills. Hideous colours may be painted over, ugly shapes could be used as armatures and built upon, etc.

For casual water garden ponds, there are numerous choices: plants, stones, boulders, pebbles, logs or various combinations of these, with parts of turf and possibly a bench, of some rugged sort, so that it’s possible to sit and meditate. This last, naturally, can be useful, within a more sophisticated shape, by the formal pool.

The irregular shaped water garden pond isn’t the location for statues, except just possibly a really strong-shaped abstract, more boulder-like than spiky. An appealing natural boulder or rock could look right, so could a log or bit of driftwood. Anyone lucky enough to discover a large fossil, just like an ammonite, could do it at the lake to find out if it looked happy, and the morbid might be happy with a cattle-skull between the Hostas.

Fountains usually do not belong here and besides, the Waterlilies do not much look after moving water, although when the pool is big enough you might have water gurgling gently in to the pool from your stream, natural or man-made, while planting waterlilies inside a calm patch on the other part.
