Garden Pool as a Low-Cost Landscape Feature
Garden experts from Texas A&M urge adding a small pool to landscapes for coolness and tranquility. A galvanized water trough can serve as a DIY pool with epoxy inside painting, 18 inches minimum depth, black color to boost water reflection, and partial burial to blend with the garden.
