Hello
I have tall Cedar Shrubs in our front yard and I would like to put a
water fall in front of them to be viewed from the living room. I am
thinking of placing the waterfall as follows.
======================
Would a hill for the waterfall look "out of place" in front of these trees?
The most natural looking waterfalls are built into slopes or hillsides above
the pond.

A hill would be great, but I am working with a small area in that I
don't want the waterfall to take over my entire front yard. So in
reality, the hill will need to be rather steep and shallow if possible.
I would probably want to create the effect within a 5 - 7 ft depth
into a waterless pound (water disapearing into rocks or tiny pond on
the ground). * I am thinking waterless pond as I have a small child
and it will be within the front yard without a fence, so for safety and
legal reasons.)
I've been trying to search for some good examples online of small area
waterfalls, but haven't been able to find many.
Thanks,
RM
