Transform your outdoor space—no matter the size—into a tranquil retreat with our Oak Barrel Pond Planter Kit. Whether placed on a patio, balcony, or nestled in a garden corner, this charming oak barrel creates an instant wildlife-friendly water feature without any digging, plumbing, or fuss.
Measuring approximately 45cm in height and 70cm in diameter, each barrel holds up to 150 litres of water, providing ample room for a variety of aquatic plants and creating an inviting habitat for garden wildlife.
Choose between two stunning finishes:
Silver – finished with iron bands in a silver colour for a subtle, modern touch
Each kit includes your choice of either a miniature water lily or a deep-water plant such as Aponogeton distachyos or Nymphoides peltata, along with three hand-selected marginal plants to suit the season. Our curated selection is updated weekly to ensure peak freshness and vitality.
No internal mesh required: Thanks to the flat, solid oak base, simply place your plants directly inside the barrel and fill with water - quick, clean, and hassle-free.
Floating Solar Fountain Lily Pump
(Optional) use the clear plastic liner to line the barrel. To plant your oak barrel pond, begin by placing a 1-litre deep water plant or miniature water lily at the base. Then arrange your three marginal plants around it. Fill the barrel with fresh water until the crowns of the marginal plants are submerged by around 3cm. Maintain water levels throughout the season by topping up as needed. Place the barrel in a sunny or partially shaded location for best results. While the plants are hardy, protect the container from prolonged freezing conditions to avoid damage.
Even in small water features, water movement is essential for a healthy environment. Still water invites stagnation and algae. Whether it's a pump creating gentle circulation or a fountain adding an aerating spray, moving water significantly boosts oxygen levels, discourages algae, and improves overall water quality. This creates a more balanced ecosystem and enhances the visual and auditory appeal of your feature. While plants help, they often can't fully prevent algae in warm, still conditions, making a pump or fountain a crucial addition.
In our internal testing, the 9W solar pump performed perfectly in containers of this exact size, providing steady water movement and aeration without overwhelming the space. It helps prevent stagnation, reduce algae growth, and support a healthier aquatic environment. The flow is well balanced—strong enough to maintain water quality, but gentle enough to avoid disturbing plants or splashing outside the container.
Please Note: Due to courier restrictions, this item cannot be shipped to Northern Ireland, Guernsey, or Jersey.
Please Note: The plants are sent separately.
Please Note: The "without Plants" variant does not include plants and was created in response to customers wanting to purchase the barrel on its own.

"Barrel and plants are excellent and look very nice in my garden. However, customer service and the courier need to improve. First barrel was lost in transit meaning the plants that were delivered timely had to sit in buckets for over 3 weeks whilst I made multiple email and telephone requests for updates (kept getting told by Woven they'd investigate and call me back, but never did) and finally a replacement barrel."
"Received quickly, made into wildlife pond, totally water tight. Looks fab. Was slightly expensive but happy with product."
"Very pleased with my new pond in spite of initial delivery problem."
"Hi Still waiting on delivery of solar fountain and liner. Happy with barrel and plants but can’t set up pond until the remaining items are delivered"
"Thanks guys seems to be all okay"
"Would highly recommend the barrel pond. It was a gift for a family member and they love it. Thanks."
"All arrived alright although one of the rings needed re-siting as it had slipped. Some leakage when filled but no more than expected. Plants arrived in good condition. What would have been helpful was a page explaining how to set it up with some troubleshooting ideas, such as how to achieve different planting heights for the water plants, how long to soak the barrel for before adding the plants etc."
"Just what i expected"
"There have been several issues with my delivery however customer service has been exceptional. Quick response to my emails and immediate action taken without quibble. Without a doubt the most efficient customer service I have encountered. The majority of the issues are now resolved & I am very happy with the pond & plants Thank you Yvonne for all your help"
"Absolutely brilliant pond. It’s currently on my patio and I’m excitedly waiting for the wildlife to appear. Great service and very reasonable price. Thank you."
