What kind of reservoir to choose?

The most popular reservoir is, perhaps, pond.

It is a deepening in the soil, filled with water, of any size and depth.

To create a pond on your site, it is necessary to take into account many factors, such as terrain, soil composition, climate, groundwater.

The main characteristic of the pond is its naturalness, therefore the shape of the reservoir should be as close to the natural as possible - no sharp corners and strict geometric shapes.

In terms of size, there are no restrictions.

The main problem faced byowners of ponds every spring, and some and the whole warm period is a "flowering" of water, which is caused by the development of unicellular algae (the water turns green and gives off an unpleasant smell). Most of all the others are affected by small, easily heated water bodies, poor in aquatic vegetation. In order to avoid such flowering, plants with floating leaves that cover the water surface (egg capsules, water lilies), as well as plants enriching the water with oxygen, are usually planted.

The pond requires water filtration, as well as the work of special diffusers, which ensure the flow of water.



Fountain attracts observers with its spectacularity. Vertical jets of water, differing in the force of pressure, form, mode of motion, make the calm surface of the water more lively. With the help of strong pressure, large and voluminous fountains are obtained, which take up a lot of space, are very noisy and significantly increase the humidity of the air. Although there are more quiet compositions that do not require large spaces - here you have to choose.



Creek in your garden will look very natural, especially if you are the owner of a land plot with slopes. Then it will be possible to create an analogue of a mountain stream.
This small stream of water will fall off the cascade from small ledges and be replaced by quiet windmills. Their design is very diverse, so you can easily choose the right option.



Original and a little mysterious will look bog. Frogs do not need to be run there, but fill them with different plants.



Artificial waterfall Is a stream of water that falls from a height of not less than 1-1.5 meters.

A powerful flow can be obtained by passing large volumes of water through narrow drains.

In the place where the falls fall, you can arrange a smalla lake, on the surface of which the mass of the falling water will be broken, but, in principle, one can confine ourselves to fragments of rocks (in the form of large sharp stones) in which the flow will disappear. The place of the waterfall can also be decorated with different elements, for example, statues and plants.



As you can see, the choice is great. Therefore, having considered well the possibilities of the land plot, and your wallet accordingly, you can create such an exquisite and picturesque element of landscape design as an artificial reservoir. With its help, your site will acquire a unique beauty and naturalness.



Ponds, streams, fountains, cascades, waterfalls likenothing else can create a stunning microclimate, extremely useful for physical health and psyche. They have a soothing and calming effect - for good reason they say that you can look at the flowing water endlessly ...
