1. Container pond with stained-glass water lily

This is as simple and low-maintenance as it gets: a water tight container, a recirculating pond pump, and a stained-glass water lily.

2. Formal raised pond with paving stones

I think the secret to how great this pond looks is a) the use of pavers, and 2) having it against the brick wall.

3. Small whiskey barrel water feature

These whiskey barrel ponds with liners can be purchased as kits. You can see one here at Amazon.com: whiskey barrel pond kit. If you can wait until the end of the season, you might be able to find one for a great deal.
