Water Features For Small Gardens

Small gardens pose specific problems, in particular how to create an attractive garden within a limited space. A water feature provides year-round interest and is an ideal way to enhance and enliven a small garden. From a small formal fountain to a pebble pool, a miniature waterfall to wildlife pond, this book presents a gallery of exciting ideas and designs, together with practical information and technical advice.

The book discusses and illustrates a wide variety of styles and types of water features, from wall fountains to millstones. Once you have decided on the water feature that suits your needs and your garden, there is expert guidance on how to construct it.

There are 14 step-by-step projects, using basic construction skills, for a range of water features, each of which can be adapted to suit individual taste and gardens. To give you all the help you need, there are chapters on designing and maintaining water features, and on the plants best suited to water gardens, together with superb colour photographs and detailed line drawings.
