Water Garden Idea Book (Taunton Home Idea Books)

Water gardening is making a big splash in today's landscapes. Called the fastest-growing part of the landscape industry today, the installation of water features in the landscape is a multi-billion dollar market. It's easy to see why. Splashing fountains make hot days seem a bit cooler. Basins of water reflect the blue sky, puffy clouds, and colorful fall leaves. Naturalistic ponds and waterfalls attract birds and butterflies to backyards. And tiny tabletop fountains offer soothing sounds that drown out neighborhood noise. Water Garden Idea Book brings these ideas to life, providing more than 300 photos of all types of water features--with tips for design and placement so that they become striking focal points or soothing and subtle additions for any setting. From ponds and streams to pools and water stairs, fountains, containers, and bubbling urns, Water Garden Idea Book has it all. Special emphasis is given to siting all types of water features and how to install a water feature yourself. Extensive resource list is included.

The pictures and ideas are very nice but I was disappointed that there were no instructions on how to create or install the water features shown in the book.

i love this idea book!! the pictures are so beautiful the information good i love looking through it!

I love water gardens, always have. I have only had small gardens, as I don't have large areas to put them. This book gave me ideas to turn big gardens into small gardens. Beautiful pictures. Makes you calm to just look at the pictures.

Like all Taunton publications I have seen, it has good pictures. Inspires one to quit reading and get outside and do something,
