Water Garden Waterfall

Wouldn't you like enhance your landscape with a water garden waterfall? Not only will a waterfall beautify your backyard pond, it will also serve to buffer noise pollution from nearby streets and businesses.

Soil excavated from digging your pond can be used to build up a slope ideal for creating a small water course and waterfall. Depending on the area you are working in, you could even create multiple pools cascading into one another.

You will need a water garden pump to recirculate the water from your pond to the waterfall. Ideally, this should be a pump with an adjustible flow rate, so that you may control the flow of your waterfall.
