Pond Plants

Plants and ponds naturally go together. Plants at the shoreline of a pond can intercept nutrient run-off to the pond, thereby reducing algae growth. Plants also soften the shoreline of the pond making it look more natural. They also attract butterflies, dragonflies, damselflies and birds. Your going to grow somethings in your pond, it might as well be some colourful shorline plants, rather than algae or weeds.

Some of the more available shoreline plants are

Sweet flag - Acorus calamus
Marsh marigold - Caltha palustris
Blue-flag iris - Iris versicolor
