Home & Garden - Fountain

Water features add interest to a garden. To make the rock fountain shown here, you will need a base container, a flower pot, a fountain pump, tubing, a few stones and a little imagination. Here are a few tips before you begin: When shopping for a submersible fountain pump, choose one powerful enough to pump the water to the height you need for your project. For most small fountains, a pump that works to a height of 24 inches is sufficient. Most pumps don't include the tubing to move the water from the base to the top of the fountain, so you will need to purchase that separately. Most pumps come with an adaptor so that they can handle various sizes of tubing. You can find pumps and tubing at fountain supply shops, most hardware stores, and some craft and garden shops.
