Product Description The Jumbo Planter & Amanzi Pond is an earthy, nature-inspired garden water feature handcrafted in solid cast stone concrete. Designed to emulate the organic beauty of weathered rock and petrified timber, it showcases an upright, hollowed stone trunk pillar set squarely within the broad, organic-rimmed Amanzi Pond basin. Water wells up gently inside the top hollow before trickling smoothly down the textured bark-like grooves into the generous circular pond pool below.

Weighing a solid 100kg with an expansive 1.6m by 1.8m footprint and a balanced 83cm height, this concrete ensemble delivers exceptional wind stability, permanence, and year-round weather endurance. Its warm sandstone-and-earth tones integrate flawlessly into lush flowerbeds, rockeries, and woodland-style gardens, providing a peaceful water presence and a welcoming oasis for local birdlife and pollinators.

Installation & Foundation Guide Install on a firm, flat, and well-compacted foundation to properly distribute its 100kg weight. A level base of compacted crusher run, sturdy paving stones, or a flat concrete slab is ideal. Use a spirit level along the Amanzi Pond rim before filling to ensure water levels remain uniform and water spills evenly from the top pillar. Position a submersible pond pump inside the basin and run flexible piping up through the base to the top reservoir outlet (submersible pump sold separately).

Maintenance & Care

• Ensure the Amanzi Pond is kept topped up with clean water so the submersible pump intake remains fully covered.
• Periodically remove fallen leaves, twigs, and mulch debris to maintain clear water circulation and protect the pump.
• Treat with a wildlife-friendly, concrete-safe algaecide to prevent green algae buildup on the pillar surfaces and basin floor.
