Between our house and the road, I have a few more options on plants, but have our drain field to deal with and always, always, wind tolerance. The fountain is turned off when it's too windy, but the birds love it, and I can see it from my kitchen window. I got the large water pot last week from a rental business that didn't need it and sold it to me. I'm trying to have a plant that looks like a fountain. As you can see, it is next to the driveway...for some height!
