Better Homes and Gardens whets a water-feature appetite with its new book Water Gardening.
The book focuses mainly on do-it-yourself ponds, waterfalls, fountains and other features, although it does touch briefly on hiring a professional. It gives quick overviews of various types of water features, including cost, construction and maintenance, and then delves more deeply into various aspects of water gardening.
Included are instructions for 15 water-gardening projects, including planting plans to accent them. The book also provides detailed information on planning, building, planting, stocking and maintaining a water feature.
Better Homes and Gardens Water Gardening is published by John Wiley & Sons and sells for $19.99 in softcover.
