They're amazingly easy to grow both indoors or outdoors, and provide instant gratification as you can incorporate them in a wide array of recipes including soups, marinades and sauces.

Setting Up and Maintaining Large Garden Fountains
Setting Up and Maintaining Large Garden Fountains A very important first step is to think about the proportions of the outdoor wall fountain with regards to the area you have available for it. A solid wall is definitely necessary to hold up its total weight. Note that small areas or walls will require a lightweight fountain. In order for the fountain to have electrical power, a nearby electrical socket is needed. Most outdoor wall fountains come with simple, step-by-step instructions with respect to the type of fountain. The general outdoor wall feature is available in an easy-to-use kit that comes with everything you need and more to properly install it. The kit contains a submersible pump, hoses as well as the basin, or reservoir. The basin can usually be concealed among your garden plants if it is not too big. Since outdoor wall fountains require little maintenance, the only thing left to do is clean it consistently.
Replenishing and cleaning the water on a regular basis is very important. Debris such as branches, leaves or dirt should be cleaned up quickly. Ensure that your outdoor wall fountain is shielded from bitterly cold winter temperatures. Your pump may crack when subjected to freezing water during the winter, so it is best to bring it indoors to prevent any damage. All in all, an outdoor wall fountain can last for any number of years with the right servicing and care.
