I've always wanted a water feature and last year bought a tub, filled it with rainwater and a couple of plants. It didn't do exceptionally well, I think due to the extremely hot weather we had as it is positioned in the sun and rarely got any shade. I would have liked a pump and foundtain, but wouldn't have one installed with all the cables and paraphinalia that goes with it. However, I have found, very reasonably priced, a solar fountain! Sorted all this yesterday, emptied the tub, put some fresh rainwater in, sorted the plants out (hopefully) and here it is! It was £10.99 to buy, on e-bay, unfortunately came from some obscure place abroad (I do like to buy British), took about 5 days to get here and I am delighted with it. For the price, it is amazing. What do you think?

I think a water feature in a garden is lovely, the sound is so relaxing. Hope you enjoy in the summer Shirls when sitting in your deck chair. Looks lovely.

Shirls it looks fab.
I saw one of these advertised in a gardening magazine the other day and was pondering on getting one for the pond. After seeing your pic I think I will!

It looks wonderful and what a great idea! Since its in the sun, solar power is perfect. I wonder if the wild birds will come to take a drink or dip this summer?

Lovely Shirls, we have a mini waterfall on our pond and it's so nice to hear the water.

That's very pretty Shirls. I'd like a water feature. We are renovating our gardens this year, after the builders trashed both front and back, I might add one then. We are putting in a new pond as the tiny puddle we have is like frog soup in the summer, standing room only now, so I may look at putting a small one in then.
