Fairy Solar Water Fountain

I love the sound of running water and I' m planning on putting a fountain in the garden.

I fell in love with this solar powered water fountain. Not only is it pretty, but I won't have to use electricity to run it, and no more tangled cords. Tell me what you think of it.

Winterizing Our Ponds & Fountains continued

We've been winterizing our ponds and fountains. The pond should be covered with netting to keep the falling leaves and debrie out. The decaying debrie is poisonous to the fish. As it decays it sends of chemicals that will kill the fish. The debrie will also often clog up the pump.

Then we removed our plants. Some plants like the water hyacinth and lettuce we'll just throw away as they don't winter over. The tropical plants like the rushes, cannas, elephant ear, arrow and arum can be taken to the garage or basement (somewhere where they won't freeze).

We can still enjoy the fountain for awhile yet.

Water Feature

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In landscape architecture and garden design, a water feature is any of a full range of fountains, pools, ponds,cascades, waterfalls, and streams. Prior to the eighteenth century they were usually powered by gravity, though the famous Hanging Gardens of Babylon are believed to have been supplied by an archimedean screw. Other examples were supplied with water using hydraulic rams. Since the eighteenth century the majority water features have been powered by pumps. The power source was sometimes a steam engine but in modern gardens it is almost always electricity. There is an increasing range of innovative designs as the market becomes more established and people become more aware of the advantages of using solar power. These advantages include environmental benefits, no mains electricity in the garden, and free energy.A modern famous example is the Diana, Princess of Wales Memorial Fountain.Modern water features are often self-contained, meaning that they do not require water to be plumbed in; water is recycled from a hidden reservoir, also known as a sump. The sump can either be contained within the water feature, or buried underground (in the case of an outdoor water feature).
A water feature may be indoor or outdoor and can be any size, from a desk top water fountain to a large indoor waterfall that covers an entire wall in a large commercial building, and can be made from any number of materials, including stone, granite, stainless steel, resin, and glass.

Custom Fountains

Generally speaking fountains are usually pretty to install. There are a number of good water fountains on the market. Shop around or drive around to find an out of the way gardening center that may have different fountains than what you would find in your local stores. The water fountains that you buy usually come with a water pump and there may be limited assembly. You will just have to place it near an electic outlet to run the pump.
And if you are handy enough you could build your own. You would be amazed at what you would find laying around that would we suitable to put a fountain together. Add some water tubing and a pump and voila you have a custom made backyard water fountain.

Urn Water Fountain

While driving through the countryside I have noticed from time to time that more and more people are using Jars/Urns for their water fountains. While I have never seen a water fountain that was sold that way (it is possible that they are, I just haven't seen one in a store). Anyway I think it is a great idea! It kind of reminds you of ancient times when the young women carried similar urns of water from the nearby "spring" or "well".
These urns come in a variety of colors, shapes and sizes. Some are tall and sleek with handles, while others a bit more round.

Water

People are fascinated with running water. The sounds of water splashing and running emit a very soothing and relaxing aura.
Cities and villages have sprung up along rivers. Water in truth is vital to our very being.
