How to make a potted pond
The beauty of a pond in a pot is that it can be put together in a couple of hours without all the hard labour and logistics involved in digging out a pond from scratch in the garden. Make sure you use a container that is completely watertight. Purposemade pond containers may come with planting grids to place your plants on. If you use an improvised container, place the plants on top of upturned pots or bricks.
