Creating a rock water feature is a wonderful way to add tranquility and natural beauty to your outdoor space. Here’s a simple guide to help you get started:
Gather Materials: You’ll need a waterproof container or pre-formed pond liner, rocks of various sizes, a sub -mersible pump, tubing, and water.
Choose a Location: Select a spot that’s relatively level and visible from your home or patio. Consider proximity to electrical outlets for the pump.
Dig a Hole: The size and shape depend on your desired feature. Make it deep enough to accommodate the container or liner, plus room for rocks.
Place Container/Liner: Position it in the hole, ensuring it’s level. Fill the gap between the container and hole with soil or sand.
Arrange Rocks: Start with larger rocks around the edges to create a natural look. Stack and layer different - sized rocks to form waterfalls or cascades if desired.
Install Pump & Tubing: Place the pump in the container, and run the tubing from the pump up through the rocks to the top of your feature.
Fill with Water: Pour water into the container until it reaches the pump’s recommended level.
Plug In and Enjoy: Once everything is set up, plug in the pump and watch your rock water feature come to life, creating soothing sounds and a serene atmosphere.
Regularly check water levels and clean the pump and rocks to maintain your beautiful feature.
