You can order preformed ponds here or on our niche site www.gardenpondshop.co.uk . They are a present that will last for more than just Christmas time, and will give the gift receiver years of pleasure. Perfect for anyone you know who likes wildlife and gardening. Even the small 85 litre preformed pond can attract frogs, and also, ponds are great for garden birds. The most popular size is the medium preformed pond (200 litres). 

Delivery is included and they are sent by courier, so should only take a few days to arrive, after ordering.

You might have heard about the concept of turning garden lawned areas into 'mini wildflower meadows', where wildflowers are grown to help bees and butterflies. A great way to make your garden more wildlife friendly. Gardenis.co.uk already sells preformed ponds and wildlife pond liner pond kits that are popular, so I thought I'd create a new mini wetland kit, which can help create an area in your garden that resembles a small wetland. It includes

1 small preformed pond

1 medium preformed pond

1 4x3m pond liner

The two preformed ponds can be used to create deeper pools. The pond liner rather than be used to create a deeper pond can be placed in a hole of about 10cm with gravel, logs and rocks to create a shallow area. Alternatively the liner can be cut in half, with one half used for a shallow area, and the other to create a bog garden, by digging a hole of about 15cm deep, placing the liner in, then covering with soil, then plant pond marginal plants. The liner will help keep the soil marshy. Add a variety of native marginal and pond plants, and before long the mini wetland will attract aquatic insects, birds and possibly frogs, newts, toads and dragonflies. The kit can be ordered here;
