Your home should be your safe haven. It should provide you not only security but also a sense of serenity and calm when everything seems to be in turmoil. And that soothing ambiance is just what a pondless water feature can deliver. Why not consider one for your backyard?
Look. If you're thinking of adding a backyard pond you might want to think twice. Yes it gives your home the tranquility you're looking for. However, imagine how much yard space it can eat up. Not to mention, the maintenance required. You need to take care of the plants and fish. You also need to keep it clean and free of fallen leaves, debris, and ever present algae.
Instead how about getting the soothing sound of flowing water without any of these maintenance hassles? Yes, you can still enjoy a waterfall garden without a pond. Sounds crazy I know but that's exactly how pondless water features work.
That means you still get to have a water feature in your yard only without any water flowing into a collector pond. There are actually a lot of designs to choose from such as a waterfall with a bubbling urn, a rocky stream bed, or a stone spire.
Today, more and more people are taking great interest in pondless water systems according to many selling such things. Not only because they are one of the hottest landscaping trends going but because they offer solid advantages over your more traditional backyard pond.
Soothing: Even in the most urban of settings you can still enjoy the splish splashing of water in your back yard.
Safety: With a pondless water system, there is no standing water. Hence, there is nothing to fall into. So if you have kids at home or living nearby having this kind of water feature is truly ideal from a safety point of view.
Saves Space: A 10 foot by 15 foot pond may not sound like much but it can take up a lot of lawn you'd rather not devote to a pond. Yet pondless water features can be set up in the most compact of spaces. Perhaps giving you the best of both worlds.
Saves Work: Some busy homeowners don't have a lifestyle that lends itself to pond upkeep. So they don't want to sign up for all the work that may be involved. Instead they opt to go pondless which is easier to set up and maintain than your traditional pond.
If you are one of those homeowners for whom a full blown approach to water gardening just isn't practical then consider a pondless water feature. It can compliment your stunning landscaping and give you a low maintenance escape that still can calm and sooth you after a hard day at work.
