Hi to everyone , I just joined and hope to share my garden "stuff" with
you all.

This may seem like a pretty pointless question , but my imagination runs
away
with me sometimes ..so bear with me please cos I am not the sharpest
tool
when it comes to these things.

I have a little corner in my garden dedicated to the fairies and fantasy
, I want to make a little pond ( when I say little ..a foot deep and
two/three foot round) but I really don't know how to deal with the
electrics I would need for a pump and I know nothing about filters etc,
so obviously I am not intending to have any fish for the reason above.

But ..I wondered , is is feasible to dig my self a hole , put some pond
liner in it , fill it up and thats it ? I feel like I am missing a very
valuable point here ...I was going to just get a little solar powered
lilly fountain to just sit in it ..purely decoration this little pond.

will the lily fountain keep the water ok as there is movement , do I
need to buy a tablet or something to put in the water as I have no
filter , or am I talking rubbish ..

any advice will be good advice , thankyou so much .
