19. Welcome water
The sound of running water is one of the most calming sounds and therefore any form of water feature or pond is a welcome idea for a zen garden. ‘Remember water. Adding a water feature idea is an easy way to connect you to nature’ agrees Melanie Hick.
‘Whether it’s a container pond, a shop-bought bubbler or a water dish, water is a relaxing focal point and great for wildlife.’ For a more natural look add rocks and plants around your water feature so it blends in with the rest of the garden.
