Water fun in miniature

Water fun in miniature

If, unfortunately, there was no place for a reservoir in your garden, do not be upset – there is a way out. Mini-watermarks with charming plants will come to the rescue, which can become a kind of highlight for your garden. Such a “water element” can be put not only in the garden, but also on the terrace or balcony. Also in the shade near the reservoir you can put wicker furniture and rest there in their free time.To arrange such mini-watering, you will need containers from any waterproof material. You can use old basins, wooden barrels, barrels and tubs, which, as a rule, do not miss water. If you doubt, cover wooden containers from the inside with a pond film. Features of natural stone or concrete may even come up, but for such purposes they will need to be covered from the inside with waterproof paint, for example, intended for pools. Concrete containers, terraces buried on the floor and lined with beautiful tiles or mosaics, will look quite modern and extravagant.

True, a small depth of such containers limits you in choosing aquatic plants for them. But you can choose the most beautiful and expensive plants and it will be easier to care for them, t.To. There will be few of them. For such mini-ponds, plants such as Japanese Iris and Likhnis, Kukushkin color or miniature water lilies, which are ideal for mini-vodomas, are perfect, since the necessary depth for their successful growth is only 2550 cm.

In order for your mini-breed not overgrown with algae, select a slightly darkened place for it. The water in it should be soft and poor on organic matter, which provokes the violent appearance of algae. To do this, the water in mini-water will have to be changed from time to time, removing the remains of plants, which, when decomposed and enrich water with organic. Of course, you can use special chemicals to destroy algae.
