  • Garden care:
    These plants are potted up (using a suitable aquatic compost) into aquatic pots. These pots are made of a fine mesh, which allows water to circulate through the compost, providing the plants with both oxygen and nutrients. They can be placed straight into the pond, however they can be planted straight into the pond with a covering of water from 5cm (2") up to 45cm (18") deep. To enhance flowering divide congested clumps every three to five years. Aquatics can appear a little flaccid after their travel to you but will regenerate once submerged in water.
