Bargain End Of Season Sale ,Collection of Floating Plants (Qty 22+)
Excellent value collection of Pond Water Plants,
Comprises:
Bunch of Elodea , Min of 6 Strands( most are attached to a main stem)
Bunch of Frogbit , Min of 16 plants
A small handful of Duckweed
The plants are
of a medium to vigorous growth rate.
This selection comprises well over 22 plants (the duckweed is difficult to count because of the small size so you will receive a small handful)
The Frogbit reassembles a mini floating water
lily with quaint flowers in July/August & will regenerate very quickly, the
buds will submerge to the pond depths in winter but as the water
temperature increases it emerges in increased numbers. You need to ensure there
is sufficient pond depth to avoid the water freezing in winter. Some of the
leaf will turn brown but do not despair it is the buds that regenerate into new
plants.
The Elodea is one of the best oxygenating plants & will quickly establish itself either by planting in a container or just placed on the surface. l believe they are best used as floaters to discourage algae growth.
Common duckweed is most obvious throughout spring and summer on water bodies across the country.It is green in colour and has small rounded leaves with a short root that extends roughly a centimetre into the water.The leaves allow for individual plants to float on the surface of water bodies and ‘raft’ together to cover areas of water in a green ‘lawn’.It can get invasive so you may have to keep in check once established.
All plants will be wrapped in moist kitchen tissue & placed inside a sealed
bag to keep them fresh.
