River Bed Builders love fountains! Installing a set of basalt column fountains can instantly add a WOW factor to a landscape. A great feature for smaller spaces, fountains are a creative alternative to a pond or waterfall. They bring the sound of water right into your back yard. Needing little space and requiring minimal maintenance, fountains are the perfect feature for up-scaling your backyard. Animals love these fountains, birds especially. If you live in the Southern Indiana-Kentuckiana area and you're a nature enthusiast with limited space, this may be the waterscape for you!

Garden Landscape Fountains come in a wide range of sizes, styles and materials. You can purchase a prefabricated fountain or you can have one custom designed and built. Landscape Fountains can be mounted on walls, freestanding, tiered or disappearing. The option you choose will primarily depend on your budget, space availability, maintenance considerations and garden style. A good rule-of-thumb is to use a large fountain as a focal point and a small fountain as an accent element.

If you're interested in "testing the waters" of the water gardening hobby, a container water garden is a great place to start! They are generally used to add the sound of water to a deck or patio, but they also look great greeting visitors by the front door. They don't just add beauty though, they also give kids a fun way to learn about nature, and make a great starter "pond" for any young children interested in water.

A fountainscape can be created using virtually any type of container ... as long as it has the ability to hold water. An old claw foot tub, a galvanized bucket, your favorite terracotta pot, or an old whiskey barrel all make great containers for your new water garden! Once you've chosen the container, you need to make sure it will hold water. Any un-glazed pottery will need to be sealed and drain holes will need to be plugged. A wooden container such as a whiskey barrel can be lined with a piece of rubber liner that is affixed to the rim. Just make sure any sealant you use is safe for plants and fish.
