AQUATIC PLANT DETAILS

What's in a Box?

We send our aquatic plants via 2-Day Express Service to ensure that they arrive at your door happy and healthy. Express shipping isn’t cheap, but we know how important it is that your plants reach their destination safe and sound.

We ship all of our plants bareroot. That means they will arrive in no or very little soil, with the roots possibly wrapped in wet paper. They may look a little haggard after their journey, but they will spring to life after you plant them.

Planting Your Marginals

Unpack your plants as soon as they arrive. We recommend monitoring the tracking number to ensure someone is home to receive the package, especially on hot days.

You have two options when it comes to putting plants in your pond: planting them in a fabric aquatic plant container or planting them directly in the pond.

If your pond has flexible rubber liner and bottom gravel, we recommend planting directly in the pond to help keep things look naturally. Simply push some rocks to the side and gently press the plants roots and surrounding soil against the liner. Cover the roots with a light layer of rocks.

If you use a fabric planter, add some aquatic soil and rocks to fill out the pot and place it directly in the pond. Most marginals like to have their roots submerged in about 1 to 4 inches of water, regardless of whether you plant in the pond or in a container.

You might see a little bit of soil make its way into your pond during the planting process. This is normal and will clear up on its own. If you like to keep your pond spotless and don’t want to wait for the dirt to settle, try adding Rapid Clear for even faster results.

Caring for Marginal Plants

Marginal plants are extremely easy to care for and require very little attention from you. Just plant and enjoy!

Fertilizer

Most marginal and bog plants do not require fertilizer. They’ll pull all the nutrients they need right out of the water. Feel free to add a fertilizer tab or two though if the plant seems to be struggling.

Winter Care

This Plant is [display_attribute attribute="hardy-to-zone"]

If you are in one of the zones listed above, this plant can remain planted outdoors year-round. It may go dormant over the winter, but you can generally expect new growth in the spring. Feel free to cut it back in the fall if desired (no shorter than a couple inches above the water line), or leave it for wildlife to enjoy.

If your zone is not listed above, treat this plant as an annual. Bring it indoors or dispose of it before the season’s first frost.

Controlling Excessive Growth

Any plant can take over a pond if given the opportunity. Thin out your plants as desired to prevent excessive growth. Never introduce plants to native waterways.
