A better plan to adorn formal water ponds is often a container of some kind, either empty or planted up. This can be as elementary as ordinary clay plant-pot, full of geraniums, or whatever you decide and can find or lug home from foreign parts. It really is easy to pick up some very attractive pots, even just in the tourist spots, at reasonable prices, and thus long while they don’t exceed your weight allowance, it’s going to be definitely worth the effort to get them back.
One of my favourite gardens features a large Turkish coffee-pot, of beautifully greened copper, ready the swimming pool. It had been rescued from a closing down cafe within a country town and, despite its exotic looks, was very much in your house on this Hampshire garden.
Some simple urns and pitchers may be used, added to their side. Close to the pool, being a gentle fountain, with water pouring in the top, and returned, by a few discreet piping and a submersible pump. The absolute right place to look for such as auctions, jumble sales, junk shops, etc. Even quite unpromising shapes can be used as the foundation to your skills. Hideous colours can be painted over, ugly shapes could be used as armatures and built upon, etc.
For informal water garden ponds, there are numerous choices: plants, stones, boulders, pebbles, logs or various combinations of these, with aspects of turf as well as perhaps a bench, of some rugged sort, to ensure one can possibly sit and meditate. This last, needless to say, will be useful, in a more sophisticated shape, from the formal pool.
The irregular shaped water garden pond is not place for statues, except just possibly an especially strong-shaped abstract, more boulder-like than spiky. An appealing natural boulder or rock could look right, and so could a log or bit of driftwood. Anyone fortunate enough to look for a large fossil, such as an ammonite, could check it out at the lake to ascertain if it looked happy, even though the morbid might accept a cattle-skull amongst the Hostas.
Fountains do not belong here and besides, the Waterlilies don’t much take care of moving water, although in the event the pool is big enough you may have water gurgling gently into the pool from a stream, natural or man-made, while planting waterlilies in a calm patch at the far wall.
