The Sound of Waterfalls

Waterfalls add delightful sound to the garden and can be customized for your listening pleasure. If you live near busy traffic, you might want a grand waterfall to drown out the noise of cars rushing by. But if you live in the country, a small idyllic stream or waterfall can create just the right melody for harmonizing with crickets and birds. Whatever your fancy, the perfect watefall can be created just for you ... so sit a spell and enjoy!



Fallen logs are strategically placed to make this stream appear as though it's been part of the landscape for tens of years.

This Red Attraction waterlily pops out against the bright green lily pads.
