Sink pond
Hello my mum has at least one deep Belfast sink and one shallower one. I think she may have a second deep one too. Can she convert these things into a pond or series of ponds. What would need to be done to help wildlife? She'd love a waterlilly. Would any be suitable?

The deep one can be the pond and the shallow one can be a bog garden- or anything you like it to be.
You can buy mini water lilys.
Look at. Puddleplants online or visit a local maidenhead aquatics.
Look for something called nymphaea pygmaea or mini or dwarf.
Just dig a hole, make it level and place the sink in.
how will they go on in freezing weather
Big tough things.
true
Do they have to be sunk or can they be left above ground? Pressure need a ramp in and out for any frogs etc?
If you create a ramp or surround the sink with rock/soil/ wood/ plants -- things will be able to get in or out.
