fountains also require a natural=water for the effective water areas. See
here: https://github.com/gravitystorm/openstreetmap-carto/issues/705

A cascade could be waterway=cascade? Or is it a waterfall?

For areas you can maybe find something here (reflection_pool?) or invent
something new along these classes:
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/Water_details

I've recently mapped this as (one) fountain, although there isn't any water
sputtering more than 10 cm (I'd call this a cascade), maybe also your
"ornamental water features" can be considered fountains? Do you have a
picture?
