Ponds and water features have been popular in gardens for thousands
of years. This book is aimed at anyone who is thinking of building
a pond, anyone who has bought some of the materials but doesn't
know how to start or anyone who has a pond and needs to know how to
keep it at its best.The book starts with the basics of assessing
the garden, checking the site, planning and preparation, tools and
materials and electrical wiring and safety. With the basics
established the authors introduce the many different types of pond
and how they can be created, maintained and enhanced.From
split-level ponds to wildlife ponds, plant and fish and adding
sculptures, bird houses, stones and bridges, each subject is
presented in a clear way with box features, lists and questions and
answers. The final chapter looks at water features - a rock pool or
stream for a large garden or a small wall mask or trough for a tiny
back garden.
