FROG BIRD BATH
The Frog Is Holding the Lily Pad
A frog stands upright with a lily pad balanced on its head, veins radiating out from the center and two pink water lilies resting on the rim.
The name suggests a frog sitting on a pad. It is the other way round. The frog is the pedestal, standing on webbed feet with the whole basin overhead, which is a stranger and better idea.
It looks at you. The eyes sit high on the head, wide apart, and the mouth carries a slight upward line. At 25 inches it is at the height where a child notices it first.
What Makes This Bird Bath Different
- The frog is the structure, not an ornament beside it. Most animal bird baths park a small figure next to a plain column and the eye reads two objects. Here the frog stands on its own feet and carries the basin overhead, so the whole thing is one form. It is also the reason it works from every angle rather than having a correct side.
- A lily pad basin with veins and two flowers. The pad radiates from a center point the way a real one does, and the two water lilies sit on the rim rather than being painted on. The rim is uneven because a pad edge is uneven, which gives better grip than a smooth circle.
- Keep the water shallow. Add a shallow layer of water and keep it below the rim. Refresh it regularly.
- Twenty five pounds and low. At 25 inches tall, the standing frog and leaf-shaped basin create a decorative focal point among planting.
Near a path, at the edge of a border, beside a pond if you have one. It reads best with green around it and it wants to be seen from the front, though the standing pose works from most angles. 25 inches is a safe height for birds. Leave two or three feet of open ground and keep a shrub within a short flight.

Setup, Care, and Warranty
Setup and placement
Two pieces, no tools. The pad seats onto the head.
Set it on level solid ground so the water sits even across the pad rather than running to one edge.
Filling it
Add a shallow layer of water and keep it below the rim. Check the water daily and refresh it whenever it is dirty or low.
Keeping the color bright
A soft brush and plain water every couple of weeks keeps the green reading true and the pad veins clear. Afternoon shade holds hand painted color at its best for longer.
Winter
Drain the pad before the first hard frost and leave it empty or turned over. Sealed concrete comes through freeze and thaw well when dry.
3-year warranty
This product includes a 3-year warranty against cracking. 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
Is the frog sitting on the lily pad?
The other way round. The frog stands upright and carries the pad on its head, so the frog is the pedestal and the pad is the basin.
How deep is the pad?
Add a shallow layer of water and keep it below the rim. Check the water daily and refresh it whenever it is dirty or low.
Will children like it?
At 25 inches it sits low enough for them to look straight at the frog rather than up at a column. It is usually the piece they take visitors to see.
Where does it look right?
Among green planting, at a border edge, near a pond. It is a character piece, so it suits an informal garden rather than a clipped formal one.
