Waterfalls Used in Garden Design

Photo Gallery of Waterfalls Used in Gardening

There is just something so lovely and refreshing about a waterfall set in a garden setting. There is something that just delights the senses, sight, sound, even touch so often if you are close enough to get some of the mist on you! Especially on a hot day, there is a true sense of refreshment that comes from these beautiful little falls.

The second photo isn't mine, but has been shared with the public and is from Hakone Gardens in Saratoga California. California has so many nice falls, and I have barely scratched the surface here. These photos may help in ideas for those wishing to make a small waterfall a part of their own garden designs one day. I would be doing great to just have a little pond! Having a little waterfall in the garden would sure be a treat.

For me, photos and places like this help in "unwinding" after a stressful day or week. I used to live near a very tall waterfall in Northeast Georgia. I was literally drawn to the water and the falls there in particular. While there isn't any chance of me having a falls like that in my backyard, these others aren't completely out of the question for gardeners, as some of these are even inside conservatories.

It would take some money likely and hard work, but image the long term enjoyment it would bring! How great to entertain as well, have a get together, party or barbeque and enjoy time with friends or family on a holiday weekend, for example. I would love that!

We are considering taking out our above ground pool in the near future, which came with out house. This would be a great replacement feature to add to the garden I am thinking! So, ideas like these may help to inspire us to other ideas perhaps, who knows!
