Garden Fountains Enhance Your Water Garden Design

By Michael Fraserf


Keep in mind that the design and material of your garden fountains is going to be dependent on two things. These are: your taste and the way your landscape was made. Various types of decorative garden fountains are available to enrich your garden pond. An environmental garden biotope looks great with compact fountain that reminds to a natural spring. For a small fishpond, that is as well an eye-catching aspect in the garden landscape it's best to install spray fountains like bell fountains, tier or double tier fountains. When you have constructed large garden pond geyser fountains may be most suitable.

Choose decorative garden fountains that go in type and size combined with the proportions of size, shape, and design of your water garden and also with design and measurements of the surrounding garden landscape. Put your decorative garden fountains where it fit really well. Normally that will be in the middle of the pond if you have a circle or a square pond. But in case you have a long rectangle pond it'll be great to have several garden fountains lined up in the center. There are many models of decorative garden fountains that are spaying from the sides into the garden pond. Spitting frogs or fish are the very common animal garden fountains.

Figurative designs, such as female fountain statues are also extremely popular and you'll find the classical type like the Venus from Botticelli and contemporary fountain statuary as well as half abstract garden fountains statues. For biotopes and natural fishpond you may consider combining your garden fountains with a decorative rock so the whole installation will go together with the natural idea of your ecological water garden. Solar powered fountains is the greatest eco-friendly solution for a natural biotope and will save your ongoing energy cost. In case you have a windy site your decorative pond garden fountains could be disturbed as well as the water could be blown into your garden or on your pond bridge, place step stones, or patio around your pond.

Decorative garden fountains improve your water garden design and help for additional aeration in your fishpond. A splashier fountain, like a geyser fountain, will provide more oxygen for your pond fish but the moving and splashing water may disrupt nearby water lilies and other floating pond plants. It needs to consider carefully how to organize and design a water garden with garden fountains. In order to have the best solution for fish and marginal plants, rather than splashing geyser fountain better choose a small bell fountain or perhaps a garden pond fountain statue that stresses your water garden landscape and keep your floating garden pond plants at the opposite end of your pond.

Many thinkable variations of decorative garden fountains are offered. Besides fountain models made of metal or wood, the most favourite choice of garden pond owners are designed stone statues. Very common garden fountains are stone carved animal statues like fish, dolphins, ducks, and frogs as standing alone sculptures or forming little groups. Animal motif garden fountains correspond perfectly with the surrounding nature. Together with striking lighting you'll create an eye-catching spot for your water garden.
