10. Fountain Heads
A unique addition to your water garden would be to add fountain heads. Fountains add drama and interest to even the smallest water garden, and can be an exquisite centerpiece for a large pond. Lighting lends an enchanting touch to these water features, extending the enjoyment of the water garden far into the evening hours.
In addition to the magical sights and sounds, fountains promote gas exchange by breaking the surface of the water. Water movement also helps reduce nuisance algae populations. With the addition of fountain heads, you are creating a better environment to your water garden, as well as creating an enchanting display to watch.

Fountain Tips for Fountain Heads
Fountain heads produce spray in a variety of patterns. The graphics illustrate jet, tulip, mushroom, and 2- and 3-tier sprays. Bubblers, bells and swirls are also available. Little Giant and Danner supply a wide variety of popular models for the home water garden, as well.
Fountains should be disconnected if the pond will be unattended for long periods. Take care to keep fountain water from splashing outside the pond as this can eventually drain the pond. Wind can also blow the spray outside the pond. Fountains should be disconnected in the winter months.
Don’t allow the water to splash outside the pond; it will eventually drain the pond. Wind is a factor. During the hottest months of summer, fountains will cause water in the pond to evaporate more quickly.
