garden pond

Yard water feature

A garden pond is a small artificial body of water constructed as a decorative or functional feature in a yard or garden.

These ponds range from simple lined depressions to elaborate installations with pumps, filters, and waterfalls.

Many garden ponds are stocked with fish, typically koi or goldfish, and planted with water lilies or other aquatic plants.

We spent the summer building a garden pond with a small fountain.
