Water Features Through Walls
Sometimes uneven yards have retaining walls constructed and while those walls are functional, they may not be too attractive! Why not get creative and run a water feature through those walls? With proper underwater lighting and aquatic plants, a drab wall can become the focal point of a landscape! They can be as simple as a small pondless waterfall or as complex and elegant as a 50' stream running down a hillside and ending in a koi pond! Check out www.rmwaterscape.com for more photos and water feature ideas.

How about this as the focal point in your yard, instead of a stone retaining wall?
