Mr. Jeremy liked getting his feet wet; nobody ever scolded him, and he never caught a cold!
Mr. Jeremy Fisher, Beatrix Potter’s most famous gentleman frog, lives in a little damp house amongst the buttercups at the edge of a pond. You'll first find the accident-prone amphibian angler in the 1906 book The Tale of Mr. Jeremy Fisher.
Available in both hot cast bronze and cold cast bronze.
A beautiful Jeremy Fisher bronze garden water feature, taking inspiration from the illustrations found in the classic Beatrix Potter book The Tale of Mr. Jeremy Fisher. This original water fountain is available in either hot cast bronze or cold cast bronze. A garden ornament that won't fail to bring a sense of literary magic to your garden.
We’d heartily recommend changing the water in your Mr. Jeremy Fisher bronze water feature at least once a month. A general rule of thumb: the cleaner the water, the slower the spread of algae.
To save energy, try using a timer or switching off your Mr. Jeremy Fisher bronze garden water feature when it’s not in use or at night time, particularly if you’re going to be away for an extended period. Even the smartest frogs can't catch a trout at night!
A garden water feature of any kind will require extra care during the winter months, and it’s vital they are drained-off fully before the frost sets in. Any water that remains in the pipes will freeze, expand, and even cause the pipes to burst. This may also result in the castings failing. This will hugely impact your beloved amphibian's ability to catch his fish supper.
A frog of considerable standards, your Mr. Jeremy Fisher water fountain will require cleaning once a month.
You're in luck! As bronze contains little or no iron, Mr. Jeremy Fisher will not rust.
A bronze water feature is wonderfully robust, meaning there's plenty of scope when it comes to the placement of your Mr. Jeremy Fisher garden water feature.
As well as the practical considerations—for instance, it will need to be positioned in reach of a mains water supply—think about where you’re going to get the most visual pleasure from its placement. Whether it's in the eye line of a favourite bench, or installed with the view from your large bay windows in mind; there's plenty of opportunity to creative.
