Garden gazebo water barrel feature - continued

With everything removed this is the Japanese water spout, the roots of the water lily had completely filled the inner plastic tub liner and even engulfed the water pump. I had to use secateurs to locate and cut free the water pump - LOL










When I made this project I blocked all the drain holes with bits of plastic, each one pushed into a bed of silicon.


The raging water lily with roots trimmed back will need to go into it's own pot.

This one here, as before I've blocked the drain hole.












This was another water plant in the barrel, now in a larger pot and like everything in there was also suffocated by the roots of the water lily.











New barrel from Bunnings for $31 bucks.
