These plants offer versatile planting options for pond margins or submerged positions. They can be used as boggy marginals in shallow water or submerged a few inches below the surface when potted up into aquatic baskets baskets with aquatic soil and topped with gravel to weight them down.
During the growing season, they naturally oxygenate water, absorb excess nutrients, and provide wildlife shelter. Thin out excessive growth in late summer if needed, removing around one-third of foliage to maintain water quality. Remove dead foliage in winter to prevent decomposition depleting oxygen levels, then trim back old growth in spring to encourage fresh shoots.
These low-maintenance plants require no feeding as they obtain nutrients directly from the water.
