The beauty of a spouting fountain can be seen when it propels a stream of shooting water into the air. Large, existing ponds can have one of these incorporated without much difficulty. You may have encountered one of these in a park or an old estate.

One of the many examples of an outdoor water feature is a classy wall fountain. Even with a small backyard, it is possible to put in one of these water features. Wall fountains are not flashy water features when compared with a spouting fountain. In this simple process. the water which is forced out of a small opening, streams down a beautifully textured wall and is then collected at the base before being pumped back to the top.

Dependent on the style you have chosen for the garden, you could think about a themed fountain. If your cottage or garden is styled in a rustic manner, you should consider including a traditional type of statue, such as a seraph holding the spout, to your fountain. On the other hand, a more contemporary yard can include more of a bold design. Feel free to let your hair down and go with something interesting and intrepid.

The central attribute of tiered fountains is the multiple levels spewing out water. Water streaming down multiple tiers of this water feature is the chief attribute of a cascading fountain.

One of the many designs of fountain available is the glass fountain. Featuring shaped metalwork, trellis-style fountains of this kind have a more traditional feel. Gardens with a lot of sharp edges as well as modern shapes and designs are better for these types of water features. The water produces a dazzling effect when it streams down the surface of the glass. Some fountains also include colored LED lights to shine onto the sheets of glass as water cascades downwards. A rock waterfall fountain (often made of imitation rock) showcases water softly cascading down its façade.

Bubbling rock fountains are large stones drilled with holes which are then filled with tubes in the center. The gurgles and bubbles at the top are the product of the low pressure used to force the water upwards. Downward flowing water appears as soft dribble as it moves down the sides of the rock to return to its base. Small gardens are perfect for this sort of fountain. To ensure that water is not sprayed around if it begins to get windy, this kind of fountain is the best choice since it only uses low pressure to move water.

The advantages of using this type of solar powered fountain is the lack of cables, lowered difficulty in installing them, the decrease in electric bills, and the beneficial effects they have on our ecosystem.

A Wall Water Feature to Match Your Design

Stand-alone wall fountains, commonly known as floor fountains, are relatively big and feature a basin on the ground.

On the other hand, a water feature attached to a wall can be incorporated onto an existing wall or fit into a new wall. Integrating this type of water feature into your landscape adds a cohesiveness to the look you want to attain rather than making it seem as if the fountain was merely added later.
