Granite Preformed Rock Pond Kits
If you are put off building a pond because it looks difficult, then think again. With some readily available information and instructions, the installation of a water garden can be as simple as digging a hole.
Since most soil is unable to hold water, some sort of retainer is necessary to stop the water from escaping. Some landscapers have chosen to build a pond using concrete, but this can be extremely difficult work. A rubber EPDM liner can also be utilized, but a liner pond requires much preliminary design. The use of a preformed pond is cost-effective, and it allows you to build a pond without the hassle of pre-planning the design of your pond. Preformed pond shells are made out of plastic in various customized shapes. If you are building a pond for the first time and have no firm idea of the shape of pond, the preformed pond is your ideal choice.
The only problem with the folding pond shell was that it was a dark solid black color. Black is a color that does not occur naturally in a pond environment, nor is it very easy to disguise. No matter how much landscaping you apply around the black shell, it is still extremely difficult to hide the fact that you are using a preformed pond.
New for 2006, Algreen is proud to announce the development of a granite flexible rock pond kit! This new folding pond shell has all the benefits of its black preformed predecessor, but
both the pond and the streamlet look like rock.
Currently, there are two sizes of granite pond shells available from GardenSuperMart (GardenSM.com): a 144 gallon shell, and a 72 gallon shell. Both pond kits come complete with:
The granite flexible pond shell
A flexible streamlet
An energy-efficient, heavy-duty Super Flo pump (500 or 306 gph, for the 144 gallon and 72 gallon shells respectively)
A telescopic riser and diverter for the Super Flo pump
Three fountain heads
Two 6” silk water lilies
Tubing and clamps.
At the time of this article, GardenSuperMart is also including a FREE SuperGlo underwater light with the purchase of every folding pond kit.
