Nothing like the sound of running water to make a garden complete and of course the birds will just love it. Great job.

Hi stroller, thank you for you comment, I have always liked water in a garden, I use to have a little waterfall at first then just had a pond then a water feature, and now my plant pot feature, cheers

Hi Jeanleach, yes I did, I bought a round plastic tub from B&Q about 2ft deep I placed my pump in the tub then had a piece of plastic that I placed on top of the tub, drilling holes in the plastic fitted some hose pipe to the pump placed some pebbles down on top of the plastic placing more pebbles in each pot and putting hose pipe through the holes in the pots then putting some sealant round the holes where the hose comes through each pot so the water flows over each pot back into the tub, I used a water proofer on the pots, you can use plastic pots, then filled with water attached a water feature off my pump onto the end on the hose where it comes through the top small pot to give it a cascade effect when running, hope this helps it is not difficult to make
