Outdoor Living with Water Gardens

From Hometalk

Water has too many amazing qualities to list succinctly.  Adding water to any landscape design or outdoor living space can provide the soothing background noise required to soften a space, or can tie disparate elements together naturally.  Flowing, bubbling, or cascading water can be the difference between a cookie cutter landscape design and a sublime melding of outdoor living elements.  This post from Hometalk gives some great examples of how to incorporate a natural water garden to any outdoor space, and shows the spectacular results that can be achieved with proper planning and design.

Here is an excerpt from the post:

Water gardens come in a variety of sizes and styles. Bring your patio or deck up close to the water feature for maximum enjoyment.  A bridge across the water garden leads to a gazebo, waterfall, and firepit. A mix of stone lends interest to the patio. The pond comes right up to the patio providing a great place to dangle your feet and feed the fish.
