From the Publisher

Water Gardening Made Easy and Affordable!
Whether water in the garden takes the form of a still pond that reflects the sky and plants around it or a gentle trickling fountain that soothes the soul with its gentle sounds, there is little doubt that people of all ages are drawn to water features. Fortunately, adding a water feature to the home or garden is easier than ever before. As Philip Swindells points out in his new book "Quick & Easy Container Water Gardens", "Water gardening is no longer the prerogative of those with large gardens and generous bank accounts but a pleasure that can be enjoyed and afforded by all." This book is lavishly illustrated with 150 color photographs and includes clear, step-by-step instructions for more than 25 plans for creating long-lasting water gardens and fountains for indoor or outdoor use.

3.0 out of 5 stars clever ideas but missing some practical information, 30 Jul 1999
By A Customer
Lots of clever ideas for small water gardens, as well as helpful general information on appropriate plants, fish, etc. However, it would have been nice if the author had provided a list of suppliers, at least for the more esoteric items. I too would like to make a shishi-odoshi fountain, but haven't the first idea where to buy the shishi-odoshi that is the first item on the list of project supplies (!). Also, while each of the finished projects is nicely photographed it would have been a great help if there were more photographs or illustrations of more of the projects in the construction stage.

5.0 out of 5 stars Lots of good ideas, 13 April 1999
By A Customer
If you long to add the calming elegance of water to your garden this author shows many clever ways to achieve it. I like the simplicity of some of the containers-a window box, strawberry jars, sinks, etc. I plan to try the classical bamboo shishi-odoshi.A helpful plant directory is included too. -Linda Fry Kenzle, author of Gathering:Using Simple Materials From the Garden and Nature
