Chip, this is exponentially the most needed video for me. I love adding a small water feature to our city garden. We don’t have an electrical source so I have to be creative. This is absolutely gorgeous and adds a modern, zen presence.

Stunning and creative.

Hi wynn
Many thanks for your lovely comments.
I'm a little camera shy but make the odd appearance with lifting and digging. I leave the expert stuff to chip. Have a lovely gardening week ☺️☺️☺️☺️🌾🌾🌾🌾🌳🌳

Hi Chip...I am a new subby (subscriber). I am in awe of your garden and your vision! 🌿🐛💗 I have gone to the gardening store looking for plants and accessories to play in my front yard of our NY townhouse garden. I am enamored with your channel. How do you overwinter your ferns? Keep creating... please!!! A new friend from NY 😍🙏🤣😂👍😊🇺🇸
Hi there in NY and welcome to the channel , it’s so great to have you onboard , happy your liking the vlogs 🤠 I don’t do anything with my ferns over winter I just leave them with the old growth and snip them off in spring 👍🏼 thank you for your lovely message and good luck with your Townhouse Garden, have fun and a wonderful week, all the best 🌱 Chip
Oh my goodness Chip, I absolutely love your ponds. I may well have to copy this idea, it looks fabulous! Thank you for sharing 😊
Hi Janette so pleased you enjoyed the Ponds and by all means do something similar, I’m sure it would look amazing in your garden 🤠 hope you and Richard are both well and having fun in the garden, have a wonderful week and all the best 🌱 Chip
@@ChipsGreenWorld I’ve been non-stop thinking about this ever since I watched 😊 thanks so much Chip, your front garden looks absolutely gorgeous. I really love your style. Rich and I are doing great 💜 Love to you and Gypsy-Boy 🩵
Lol! I am building a small pond right now for my next vid. I liked yours!😀👍
😂🤭 So glad to hear Magnus I will make sure to tune in 🎬👍🏼 thanks & have a great one 🌱 Chip
Lovely . Really smart.
Can you give the details of the pond containers please?...have been looking for something similar for ages with no luck.
Thank you very much Bertie 🤠 the containers I found them in Homesense they are planters but as they had no holes in them I thought they would make great little ponds 👍🏼 good luck in your search 🤞 all the best 🌱 Chip
Looks great Chips !
Any chance you could put a link to where we can find your ponds please ? 👍👍
Hi Jonathan , that’s lovely to hear 🤠 and yes I got the containers for the Homesense store, they are planters but as they had no holes in the bottom I thought they would make lovely little ponds 👌 good luck in your search 🤞 have a fabulous week and all the best 🌱 Chip
Good question...
Glorious! I haven’t dared to add anything like that to my garden as I am too afraid to create a mosquito breeding paradise. Is that not a problem with your water vessels considering there is no water circulation device in them? Thank you for the inspiration!
Hi and thank you for your kind message it very much appreciated, mosquitoes no we don’t have that problem here in Yorkshire so no worries,
All the best and have yourself a wonderful day 🌱 Chip
Just put in some mosquito dunks or bits- that will take care of it
Aww chip your water gardens are truly beautiful. Love the reflections ❤ I have two ponds in my garden that bring me so much joy x
Awww thank you Sarah that’s so kind of you, i think a garden is never truly finished until it’s got some sort of water added 👍🏼 and hopefully these little water gardens should be low maintenance which is always a bonus in the garden 🤭 all the best 🌱 Chip
We repurposed the base of a circular fire pit we bought in Aldi. Works a treat as a mini pond!
Hi there and thank you for your message.. that sounds like a wonderful idea , I myself had looked at something similar but it was in a garden centre and it was quite costly at around £450 so sounds like you have something great for a lot less money 👍🏼 well done ! … All the best and have yourself a great weekend 🌱 Chip
👏👏👏👍
Thank you 🤠 very kind of you 🌱 Chip
I love your garden. It’s so so beautiful
Awww thank you so much Lily 🤠 what a lovely thing to say and very much appreciated, all the best 🌱 Chip
Couldn't have standing water in Canada. It's a breeding ground for mosquitos. I thought it was going to be a fountain but there is no pump to move the water around.
Yes, surprised me as well. Surely there are mosquitoes there as well! Otherwise a charming idea. The reflections are beautiful. Thank you.
Hi Vanessa .. thank you for the message.. we don’t have mosquitoes in Yorkshire so I don’t think that will be a problem 👍🏼 all the best 🌱 Chip
Hi there and no we don’t have them here in Yorkshire 👍🏼🤠 all the best 🌱 Chip
For someone who lives in London, I couldn't either. Always have to go round my garden emptying any standing water after it rains
Love it!! It totally inspired me!! My friend/neighbout has two exact vascs like those, and I asked her about them a few days ago, because she isn't using them.. I will ask her again now..heheh... and if she says yes, I will do something like what you did.. Thanks for sharing and for this amazing idea!!*
Hi Island Girl .. thank you very much I’m so happy you found this inspiring ..best of luck with getting your neighbours pots .. giggles 🤭 and have fun with your new water project in the garden 🌱 all the best 🌱 Chip
I love this idea! So beautiful. But how do you keep it clean? Do the plants you chose prevent algae from forming? With no circulating pump, are you concerned it will become a mosquito breeding ground? I really want to use your design but need to understand if it will work in my zone 7b garden with warm summers? Do you have a link for purchasing planter bowls and aquatic plants? Thank you for this video!
Hi Donna , I’m pleased to say we don’t have a problem with mosquitoes in Yorkshire , but we do have a lot of rain and this will keep the ponds filled with fresh water most weeks also the plant roots will oxygenate the water too 👍🏼 the ponds are in a shady spot in the garden which will also help 🤞 the containers are from Home Sense , the water plants you can get from most good garden centres or on line 👍🏼 thanks again for your message hope this helps, all the best and good luck with your new venture in the garden 🌱 Chip
Very nice!! You said something about "affordable." In the U.S., I see similar bowls marketed as "zen bowls" or "pond kits" for around $700 (~550 pounds). Is that the range you're talking about? If not, what are yours made of? Did you have an unusual source, or just a pond or garden store? Thanks!
Hi Chip I’m curious, that won’t cause root rot since it is sitting in a standing water and won’t that breed mosquito ?
Hi Joy , thank you for your message and no root rot as these plans are water plants and are happy in the water, we also don’t have the problem with Mosquitoes in Yorkshire so I don’t need to worry about that also, all the best and thank you for your support 🌱 Chip
Does the shady position mean that you won't get algae?
Hi Wendy and thanks for your message.. yes in short the shade will help as well as the fresh rain water topping them up every time it rains which has been four times this week so far.. have a wonderful day and all the best 🌱 Chip
Where would one buy these planters?
What prevents the ponds from going green with algae?
Hi Julia and thanks for your message.. the ponds are in a shady position so that should help , also with them filling every time it rains which has happened four times this week so far, each time filling them with fresh water so I’m not worried about algae at all.
all the best 🌱 Chip
@@ChipsGreenWorld thank you for your response! I have a water fountain and a big deep water pot from which the fountain spouts but it does go green despite the rain and fountain agitating the water. But you program is a joy to watch! Thank you!
Your so welcome Julia and I’m so happy you are enjoying the channel 🤠 many thanks 🌱 Chip
mosquitos?
We don’t have a problem with Mosquitoes in Yorkshire 🤠👍🏼 all the best and have a wonderful day 🌱 Chip
