Container water gardens not only add a watery element to just about any outdoor space, but they also add personality to the garden! Most often, container water gardens are not a replacement for a large water feature, instead they serve as a great starting point for a beginning water gardener who is looking to try out water gardening on a smaller scale before building a bigger pond.

Whether you're just getting started and want to give water gardening a try, or you're a full-fledged pond owner looking to add a touch of water in unexpected places around your landscape, a container water garden will do it for you. 

Oh the Places They'll Go!
When it comes to the location of a container water garden, the possibilities are endless. Most often they are found on a deck or patio, but why not use one to greet visitors at your front door instead? In place of the common welcome mat, your friends and family can be invited in by the plants and gurgling water in your unique container.

Adding a different type of focal point to a perennial garden is another good location for a container garden. Pick a container in a bright, contrasting color to make the leaves and flowers of your perennial border pop! This change in color and texture will make any perennial garden stand out from the rest.

Which Kind Will You Choose?
There's a container water garden for every taste, style, and place, but there are a few things you need to consider when deciding on the one that's best for your container water garden. Where will you put it and what colors are nearby? Will it have a pump or fountain and therefore needs to be located by an electrical source? What size would look best in the space you have chosen? Will it simply be water and a few aquatic plants, or will you add a little soil or polished stones to complete the look? Does your idea of the perfect water garden include some finned friends?
