As outdoor living is becoming more and more popular, people are always looking for ways to enhance their outdoor spaces. Pondless water features could be the perfect addition to your garden in order to enhance your landscaping and add a sense of peace to your outdoor space.
What is a Pondless Water Feature?
If you aren’t familiar, a pondless water feature is a type of fountain. They are commonly known as disappearing fountains because the water reservoir is actually hidden underground. The waterfalls bubble down through a rock base and then disappear. This cycle does not require regular maintenance because stagnant water is not an issue.
Pondless water features are easy to customize to your style, and they create a tranquil, calming aura in your garden. Plus, depending on where you place it, a disappearing fountain can become a focal point in your landscaping.
When A Pondless Water Feature is Perfect For Your Garden
When you have lots of sunlight
If you have lots of sunlight in your garden or yard, a pondless water feature just may be the perfect addition! Most water features look best in full sunlight and your garden with the beam as a result. Any place that can host a water feature should also be able to accommodate a vegetable garden or a sunny flower bed, too. Plus, when you are working in the garden, you will get to enjoy the water feature.

Pondless water features can become one of the main focal points of your garden and landscaping. It is striking and can be used to distract people from other unattractive features in your yard.

Make sure to keep water features away from power lines, pipes, and other things that could cause damage when you break ground. We also recommend keeping them away from large vegetation and putting them near your power outlets to cut some costs.
