There is nothing quite like a water fountain to make your garden seem peaceful and idyllic, no matter what lies just outside its borders. There is a dizzying array of water fountains from which to choose, but after considering the following questions, you should be well-prepared to decide which one is right for you.

  1. Cost. Installing a water fountain in your garden can be as inexpensive as a fifty-dollar package from your local garden store that you can install yourself, all the way up to custom-made sculptures that cost thousands of dollars.

  2. Style. Water fountains are usually classified as either a wall fountain or a freestanding fountain. If you have a pet, you may want to consider a wall fountain or a freestanding fountain on a pedestal--unless you don't mind having your fountain used as a doggie swimming pool! Wall fountains usually consist of a rectangular or oval base, with a spigot near the top. Water runs gently out of the spigot into a small pool at the bottom of the fountain. These types of fountains are mounted on a wall, usually one of the exterior walls of your home.

    Freestanding fountains can be found in a much broader range of styles. There is the classic fountain, also known as a bowl fountain, where the water shoots up from the center of a pool. These types of fountains can sometimes be fitted with a light and colored lenses, which lends a nice effect during the evening. There are also freestanding fountains that consist of a pillar with a large sphere on top. Water streams out of the top of the sphere and runs into a pool that's built into the top of the pillar. There are also many other styles of freestanding fountains, especially if you're interested in a fountain that's as much a sculpture as a fountain.
