Amazon.co.uk
Ground Force is a popular BBC television programme where viewers' gardens get a makeover, and this book was written to accompany the series. The presenter and author of this book is Charlie Dimmock who is a professional water gardener and still manages Mill Water Gardens in Romsey. The book covers the steps you need to take to create a water garden, or a water feature, of your own. Starting with advance planning and advice on maintenance, Dimmock explains the technical side and offers practical tips.
The book then looks at a number of different projects: from different varieties of ponds to fountains and streams. Step-by-step instructions are given for every project and each one has a guide as to how much time it will take, whether it is child friendly, the amount of maintenance required and the likely cost. Finally, the book features "Charlie's Notebook" which contains her views on the best water garden plants, how to encourage and look after wildlife and a troubleshooting guide. The book is accessible and attractively presented and proves that you can have a water feature in your garden no matter how large or small your budget or space. --Carina Trimmingham

Photos and help from gardens seen on the show
9. Juli 2002
Format:Taschenbuch
Out of all the Ground Force books, we used this one the most. It helped us put in a pond in our yard complete with a vase that bubbled water over and went down a chute to the pond. The book covers many different water features including a raised tank water garden, one with waterfalls, small ones like just a vase that bubbles over, and many others. The photos are very helpful and even more enjoyable if you get to see the episode on the BBC show that the water features were on.

Idiot-proof water gardening

Admittedly, I am somewhat biased toward this author as I enjoy "Ground Force" more than any other home improvement show and have converted several friends from HGTV over to BBC America.
The plans and designs are honest. They clearly outline how much time it will take, the safety aspect and estimated costs (In british currency). I have noticed that her costs seem a bit low, but it may be the geographic differences. Mostly, I use this on a relativity scale. (This pond is more difficult/costly than that one)
She shows wisdom and experience in her discussion of the use of native plants and introduction of wildlife. Unfortunately, there is a bit of difference between Los Angeles and London native plants, but if you apply the general idea, you can't go wrong.

The practical ideas, like: "Don't put a fountain in a windy area" or "How to hide the pipes in a wall mounted fountain" are essential things to think about once you have it your head that you must have a water element in your yard.
My husband owns a landscape design company and he frequently uses her book to narrow down a client's broad vision. A great garden library addition for a professional or an amatuer!!
