Plant Information

Top Tips

When planting, if you don’t have shelves in your pond for the pots to be placed on, they can be stood on bricks to raise them up to the correct height.

Care Guide

  • You can plant up your pond at any time of the year, although the best time for most pond plants is late winter to early spring, just as they're starting into new growth.
  • Plants are best planted into special aquatic containers which have mesh sides to allow water and oxygen to get to the roots of the plant. This will help restrict the growth of the plants and makes looking after them easier.
  • Use specialist aquatic compost as this is low in certain nutrients so will not encourage algal growth.
  • To help anchor the plant in place, add a layer of stones to the bottom of the container. Once the plant is in its new container, cover the top of the compost with a thin layer of grit to prevent the soil floating out when you submerge it.
  • Water the pot well to settle it.
  • Place the filled container into your pond at the correct depth - if you don’t have shelves in your pond, stand the pots on bricks to raise them up to the correct height.
