The Garden Gallery water feature product range

Just add water

Long gone are the days of the ‘Ground Force’ invasion crew but what has stood the test of time, and currently is bang on trend, is the addition of water to your garden. Indeed, designers made a big splash at Chelsea’08 with water featuring strongly in gardens of all shapes and sizes.

A water feature can create a stunning focal point and running water has a timeless and intrinsic beauty which never fails to enthrall and awaken the senses both in terms of sight and sound. So whether your aim is to add a magnificent centre piece or to create a tranquil sanctuary for calm and relaxation the results are truly captivating. The current options for your feature are vast; from a decorate arrangement of rainbow sandstone pebbles, to polished copper, rainbow sandstone, mirror finish stainless steel and natural slate monoliths.

Installation can be achieved with just a little time and effort. Once your feature is chosen, you will require an outside power source for the pump, a reservoir to be buried at ground level and hose and jubilee clips to attach the pump. Chlorine can be added to the reservoir water to keep your feature clean and a top dressing of decorate stones and a light, if required, completes the effect.

So whether it’s for drowning out the noise of urban living, watering plants, for attracting wildlife or simply for pleasure, visit the The Garden Gallery at Asfordby or scroll down further to see how water can transform your garden.
