Transform Your Garden with a Spherical Water Fountain Kit
A beautiful garden is about more than plants and landscaping. The right focal point can completely change how an outdoor space looks, sounds and feels.
If you're looking to introduce something distinctive to your garden, a spherical water fountain offers an impressive combination of contemporary design, natural stone styling and the relaxing movement of flowing water.
At Pond Supplies Essex, our water fountain range provides an easy way to create a premium water feature without the complexity of constructing a traditional garden pond.
Why Choose a Spherical Water Fountain?
Spherical water features are designed to become a natural focal point within an outdoor space.
Water is pumped through the centre of the fountain before flowing over the textured exterior, creating continuous movement across the surface. With Aquascape's Stacked Slate Sphere, the texture is specifically designed to recreate the appearance of natural stacked stone.
The result is a feature that works beautifully in both contemporary and more traditional garden designs.
Spherical fountains can be particularly effective in:
- Landscaped gardens
- Patios and seating areas
- Courtyards
- Gravel and decorative stone areas
- Garden entrances
- Outdoor entertaining spaces
- Areas where a traditional pond isn't practical
Bring the Relaxing Sound of Water into Your Garden
One of the biggest reasons to introduce a garden water feature is the atmosphere it creates.
Rather than being a static garden ornament, a fountain adds constant movement and the gentle sound of flowing water.
With a stacked slate sphere, water emerges from the top before cascading down across the textured surface of the fountain.
Position one near a patio, seating area or outdoor entertaining space and it can become a feature you don't just look at — but actually experience.
The Appearance of Stone Without a Solid Stone Fountain
Despite their substantial appearance, Aquascape Stacked Slate Spheres are manufactured from a lightweight, durable fibre-resin composite designed to recreate the beauty and appearance of real rock.
This makes them particularly well suited to creating a premium-looking garden feature while avoiding the need for a fountain constructed from an enormous piece of natural stone.
The stacked slate detailing also becomes especially attractive once wet, as flowing water highlights the different textures across the sphere.
Complete Fountain Kits Make Installation Simpler
Creating an impressive water feature doesn't necessarily mean designing the entire system yourself.
Aquascape's complete Stacked Slate Sphere Fountain Kits combine the main components required to create a recirculating fountain.
For example, the UK 32-inch / 81cm kit includes the sphere alongside an AquaBasin 45 fountain basin, plumbing and Ultra 8000 Water Pump. The smaller UK 18-inch / 46cm version includes an AquaBasin 30, plumbing and Ultra 2100 Water Pump.
The reservoir can be positioned below the feature, allowing the water to continually recirculate through the fountain.
That means you can achieve the appearance of a professionally designed garden water feature without needing an open pond surrounding it.
Make Your Water Feature Part of the Landscaping
The installation around the fountain can make just as much difference as the fountain itself.
Rather than simply placing the sphere in an empty area, consider incorporating it into the overall garden design.
Decorative pebbles or cobbles around the base can help disguise the reservoir and create a natural finish. Surrounding planting can soften the edges, while positioning the fountain close to a patio or seating area allows you to enjoy the sound of the water while relaxing outside.
Garden lighting can add another dimension after sunset, highlighting the moving water and textured surface of the sphere.
The aim is to make the fountain feel like part of the garden rather than something simply placed within it.
A Statement Feature for Day and Night
During the daytime, flowing water catches natural light and brings movement to the garden.
After dark, carefully positioned lighting can completely change the character of the feature.
For an even more dramatic installation, compatible Stacked Slate Spheres can also be combined with Aquascape's optional Fire Fountain Add-On Kit, introducing fire alongside the water feature.
This can create an especially impressive focal point around patios and outdoor entertaining areas.
Transform Your Outdoor Space
Whether you're completing a full garden redesign or simply looking for one feature capable of making a significant visual difference, a spherical garden water fountain can be an excellent addition.
