Frivolous question but - I was told once that the definition of a lake was
that it covered an acre of land. In discussing this with someone, I saw an
internet definition giving 0.25 of a hectare as a lake. Anyone got any
other ideas/sources/definitions?
Pond: small body of still water esp as made for watering cattle or other
purposes.
Lake: large body of water surrounded by land
So, it would appear size is everything!

Okaaaaaay. So if we create a 1 acre (or thereabouts) body of water which
will be used partly as ornament and partly to water the nursery, what shall
we call that? ;-)
