Creating a garden pond – A quick tutorial for designing efficient garden

Before you decide on a specific spot in the garden, you must consider the following issues: the style of the pond (modern, rustic). If you want to create a pool of modern garden, you can pour a concrete pool. River stones and a wooden deck around the pool are perfect for decoration. Garden ponds in a handmade country style should remind you of nature – large rocks at the edge of the pond, an irregular shape and lots of flowers and shrubs will define the rest of the garden pond. The next step is to determine the location of the garden pond. Choose a flat area. If you are planning a koi pond, you need to know in advance if the koi fish love the shade or sun. Aquatic plants also have preferences, so it is important to find the right place in the garden. Create a sketch of your garden and mark the pond. Mark aquatic plants and all the features. Only then can you begin construction.

Creating a garden pond – decorating ideas

After creating the garden pond, you can also decorate. Rocks at the bottom of the pond are perfect for Feng Shui gardens. Colorful mosaics create a classic garden pond glamorous look. Organize water features – an artificial waterfall sets the tone and the sound of water is soothing. Water lilies and bamboo give the garden an exotic look.
