Product info

We want you to be successful in growing your pond plants and use top quality components to enhance the experience. Pond plant marginals (sometimes called bog plants) are essential in creating a healthy ecosystem in your pond. While they rely on pond water for nutrients, they improve water quality by extracting excess detrimental nutrients from the pond environment before they can accumulate, and they aslo provide oxygen. These colorful, exotic, lush plants, grow in the shallow water or saturated soil around the rim or margins of a pond where the water meets the hand. Though the roots grow underwater, the majority of the plant grows and lives out and above the water. Our water plant kits come with everything needed to grow your plant: basket, fabric basket liner, plant, medium, gravel and fertilizer. Bog plants and marginals along the edge of the water garden, stream bed, or waterfall will give your pond a more natural look. What is a pond without pond plants?<br />Acorus calamus Variegatus, also known simply as Sweet Flag, is shade tolerant and grows easily in average, medium-to-wet soils. It is a deciduous, spreading, marginal aquatic that features Iris like, sword-shaped leaves. This plant is grown for its reed -ike appearance, not its flowers. Foliage and rhizomes are sweetly fragrant when bruised, hence its common name.
