sibilities are endless.
The best water gardens have strong
foundations , sturd y liners , filtration
systems, and proper UV li ghting to
improve water clarity. The cost of a
garden depends on its size and the
amount of equi pment needed for it to
function well.
"With the size and the ri ght equi pment
prices can range anywhere from $500
to more than $5,000," exp lained Hor-
ton. Then there is the matter of plants.
Countr) Garden carries 50 diffe rent
varieties o\' plants suitable for water
gardens , thoug h Horton noted that the
most popular choices are water lilies.
lotus , and cattails.
Another wonderfu l addition to a wa-
ter garden can be fish. Koi , a form of
Japanese carp, are a beautiful red and
white , often friendl y, fish. Available
in sizes from four inches to more than
three feet , koi are known to thrive in
outdoor water gardens. They are also
beneficial as they hel p control the mos-
quito population.
As something of a status symbol in
Japan , breeds of koi are as diverse as
their prices. While some koi cost about
$10 per tish. there are breeds , depend-
ing on color and lineage that can set a
person back more than $5,000.
Althoug h water gardens can be costly,
consider them more of an investment as
they can greatl y enhance the value of a
yard and the pleasure of the onlooker.
Imag ine spending a summer evening
sitting by your pond watching the fish
