Finally, December is in the room! Blessed by spring rain (the wettest in a decade, no less), our green spaces have erupted into an unruly jumble of green, which even the most diligent of gardeners have struggled to control. The pressure is real. Take it from us, what you need in these situations is a diversion, a little contrived moment, a trompe l'oeil of sorts to draw the eye to an intended focal point (not the ball of sticky-weed forming up in the back corner), and what better way to do so than to install a water feature.

Imagine if every green (and aquatic) space on our planet experienced optimum biodiversity? That is why playing our "small" part is essential. Here are 5 ways you can get busy diversifying right now!
