FORMAL POOLS and FOUNTAINS

What is a Formal Pool? I will show you. And HOW TO DO-IT-YOURSELF.

Formal or Natural...

works for all types of
water gardens!

AQUATIC PLANTING

Aquatic Planting...for those of you that don't know and for those of you that have become confused...Aquatic Planting is planting within the shallows that you will create if you use my DO-IT-YOURSELF INFORMATION!

My STEP-BY-STEP photographs take you through all of the stages. When you build a Water Garden large or small you have to think well ahead, except in this case because I have already done the thinking for you!

I will show you how to include areas to allow you to plant naturally.
Without these areas you have no chance of creating anything that will look natural.
So many people including Professional Landscapers build water gardens without allowing for Aquatic and Bog planting. And really what is the point of building something that you can't plant!
All of these examples have been constructed using...

WALLS...NATURAL and FORMAL

My photographs will show you STEP-by-STEP HOW TO BUILD Natural Stone Walls like this...

or like this one,
much more relaxed and open allowing you to pack the crevices with plants...such as wildflowers and alpines

Or perhaps you prefer a more Formal brick wall. Difficult for an un-skilled DO-IT-YOURSELFER but possible if you are prepared to take your time because it could be very slow. Otherwise enjoy the examples and engage a local Builder to D0-IT-4U
