Product Description
TREE TRUNK OUTDOOR FOUNTAIN
The Waterfall Is Inside the Trunk
A hollow tree trunk split open down the front, with four water pools set into the exposed interior. Water runs from the top down the inner wall, gathering and spilling from pool to pool, so the whole cascade happens within the trunk rather than over its surface. You are looking into something rather than at it.
That is the design decision worth understanding. Most bark textured fountains put water on the outside of a trunk shape, which reads as a decorated column. Splitting the trunk and running the water inside gives the piece depth and a sense that you have found something opened up, which is a different object even though the material and the finish are the same.
Warm LEDs light each interior pool, so at night the inside of the trunk glows and the bark stays dark around it. At 39.4 inches on a 13.4 by 11 inch base it is nearly three and a half feet of height on barely a square foot of floor.

What Makes This Fountain Different
- Water inside the form, not on it. A trunk with water running down its bark is a column with a texture. A trunk split open with pools cut into the interior is a place, and the eye reads those two things completely differently. It also means the water is partly sheltered by the trunk walls, so wind carries less of it away than on an exposed rock face of the same height.
- Three and a half feet on one square foot. 13.4 by 11 inches under a 39.4 inch piece is unusually narrow, which puts it in a bed that is already planted, a corner beside a door, or the strip along a fence where a wider fountain will not go.
- Light inside the split. The LEDs sit in the interior pools rather than aimed at the bark, so after dark the opening glows and the trunk reads as a dark shape around it. That is what makes the split visible at night rather than just at noon.
- Sixteen pounds, which cuts both ways. Light enough for one person to carry and reposition, and light enough that a windy exposed spot is worth avoiding. Against a wall or within planting it is fine. Free standing on an open terrace it is not the right choice.
What the water sounds like
Contained and soft. Because the cascade runs inside the trunk walls, the sound is partly enclosed rather than radiating in all directions, which makes it quieter than an open rock face of the same height. Four short falls give a gentle stepped trickle rather than a rush. It works beside seating and will not carry across a garden. How loud it seems will still shift with the water level and whether it stands against a wall, which is why a fixed decibel number would tell you nothing useful about your own space.

Setup, Care, and Warranty
Setup and placement
Fill it, plug it in, done. No plumbing and nothing to bury. One person can carry it at 16.5 pounds.
Set it level and face the split toward where people sit or pass. From behind or the side you see a plain trunk, and the whole point of the piece is the opening.
Wind and stability
At 16.5 pounds and nearly forty inches this is light for its height. Place it against a wall, a fence, or within planting rather than free standing in an open windy position, and keep it out of the route where someone could walk into it.
Water level and daily care
Keep enough water in the base to cover the pump so it never runs dry. The interior pools are small and the base is narrow, so the level drops faster than on a wide fountain. Check every few days in warm weather.
Clear debris from the interior pools. A blockage inside the trunk is harder to spot than one on an open ledge, so look into the split rather than just listening.
Winter storage
Before hard freezes, drain the base and every interior pool completely, disconnect and store the pump indoors, and dry the piece out. At 16.5 pounds bringing it inside is easy and is the safest option.
3-year warranty
This product includes a 3-year warranty. Coverage, claim requirements, and required documents are subject to the warranty policy that applies at the time of purchase. Keep your order confirmation, and contact customer support with your order details if service is needed.
Questions Before You Choose
Where does it fit?
A planted bed that is already full, a corner beside a door, the strip along a fence, a shaded woodland spot. The narrow base is what makes those possible. It suits ferns, grasses, and informal planting rather than a formal clipped setting.
How is it different from other tree trunk fountains?
Most run water down the outside of a trunk shape. This one is split open with the pools inside, so you look into it rather than at it. The water is also partly sheltered by the trunk walls, which keeps more of it in the fountain on a breezy day.
Is the bark real?
No, it is resin with a weathered bark finish and mossy tones worked into the recesses. Real timber in constant contact with water splits and rots. Resin holds the texture indefinitely, and at a few feet the grain reads as an aged trunk.
Is it safe around children and pets?
At 16.5 pounds and nearly forty inches tall this is easy to knock over, so keep it against something solid and out of the main running route. Run the cord along a bed edge so it will not catch a foot. The recirculating water is not intended for drinking.
