Add a pond to your garden and it will not only enhance your outdoor space, but it will introduce a favored spot for calm moments and quiet contemplation. This was the idea behind actress Jennifer Aniston's Japanese garden with koi pond. Originally designed by Hal Levitt, a sensory garden with a pond is a must-have as it's the best place to immerse yourself in nature.
A well-planted, well-maintained garden pond doesn't just look good – it's also beneficial to all sorts of wildlife. Over the last century, a large portion of ponds have been lost from the countryside, meaning that man-made garden ponds have an increased importance for wildlife.
