A container water garden is a simple way to bring peace and beauty to your home.
Start with a large waterproof container like a barrel, tub, or ceramic pot.
Add a layer of gravel or small stones at the bottom for stability
Fill it with clean water and choose aquatic plants such as water lilies or lotus for color.
Add oxygenating plants like hornwort to keep the water fresh.
For extra charm, include floating plants like water hyacinth.
Place your mini oasis in a sunny spot where it gets 4–6 hours of light.
With minimal care, you’ll enjoy a serene water feature year-round.
