Water in the reservoir, , enters the pump, , where it is pressurized, thence through the adjustable valve or flow control means, , through the tubing, , to the laminar nozzle,. The laminar stream, , emanating from the laminar nozzle, , forms a graceful arch and then falls back into the reservoir, , to repeat the cycle. In another embodiment of the invention the fountain includes one or more additional laminar or non-laminar nozzles nozzles. In another embodiment the fountain above in which the laminar nozzle(s) contain internal lighting means for producing lighted laminar streams.
