Disappearing fountains are often pieces of pottery turned into a beautiful water feature. These features can be put into any setting, inside or out. Their basin can be burried so the water seems to be 'disappearing' into the ground, or they can have beautiful tiled or wooden basins. Check out my page and look for the disappearing fountains link. We have many pictures and examples on the page. Also check out www.nelsonwatergardens.com in Houston and watersedge.com in Lawrence, Kansas, they are some of the original disappearing fountain people.
Pond-less water falls are another recently popular water feature. These pieces are beautiful additions to any backyard. They give you the beauty of a water fall, without the size requirements or maintenance of a full body of water. Be careful with these features though, there are a few things that you must know, so make sure they have done this before. Once again I could do a how section on these, but I'm just getting you started today. We also have some examples of these features on our web site, and most water garden specialists have at least some experience with them.
Finally table top and 'other' fountains are the last option we will discuss. This is probably the most competitive feature on the market, and the most options too. Anyone that has looked around a Home Depot or Lowes has seen inexpensive fountains. These are not 'quality' fountains, but if you can't drop over 75 dollars they are an option. There are many better options from many sources, just take a look around on the net or a specialized retail store. There are beautiful copper fountains and ceramic bowls with bamboo spouts. It just takes a little searching.
