| Water features seem to be becoming more and more popular on the gardening scene. We have always loved them and had at least one water feature as they convey peace and tranquility. We also find them very pleasing to the eye. |

| ....WATER FEATURES.... |
| I think most people would agree there is something special about water features. The sound of water running or trickling down a waterfall tends to give a relaxing effect as does still water. Many water features attract birds and frogs and it is not unusual for us to find ducks frolicking in our swimming pool as well. The features that include fish of course do need extra maintenance as regards water quality. So let us explore the water features here at Daze Retreat. Several of these features are home to our real life frogs who I am constantly retrieving from the swimming pool. I have not included the Koi Pond as that comes under the "Koi Pond and Fish" section. |
| The main little frog haven is this one situated in the front garden. Frogs have been breeding here for years. They croak all night but it is nice to know the environment is right for them. |
| We originally intended this only to house our spare water lily but the frogs had other ideas. It is situated right beside the swimming pool which probably accounts for so many rescues. I also think the water lily is just about due for a new home as well. |
