Formal Water Gardens

The formal water garden is a place of reflection, relaxation, and enjoyment. A formal water garden is one that often is used to decorate the landscape more than for picnics. The formal water garden is more of a work of art that is enjoyed from a distance than to be enjoyed in a family atmosphere.

A formal water garden is going to be successful only when it is gauged by size according to your landscape. The larger your landscape, the larger your formal water garden should be in order to look ‘properly’ in place. For smaller areas, your formal water garden should be more in proportion to the smaller size. A large sized water garden in a very small area is going to make your formal water garden seem out of place.
