- Attracting birds
- Garden decor
- Water feature
A weighty GFRC pedestal bath with a 2" bowl that stays put in wind and looks like carved stone. Best for a permanent, upscale focal point where you're willing to drain it before hard frost.
Pros
- Heavy 28+ lb GFRC body stays planted in wind without needing added ballast
- Stone-look finish reads as classic garden decor and resists UV fading better than plain resin
- 2" bowl depth accommodates larger birds and even fits a floating solar fountain pump
Cons
- Nearly 30 lb makes it awkward to reposition and shifts season to season
- Concrete can crack if water is left to freeze solid in winter (must drain/store)
- Costs 3-4x a comparable resin bath
