Plants

Pond plants are an essential part of any garden pond, providing not only beauty and interest but also a range of functions that help to keep the pond healthy and balanced. In the UK, there are many different types of pond plants that are suitable for different types of ponds, depending on the size, shape, and location of the pond, as well as the needs and preferences of the pond owner. Some common pond plants in the UK include water lilies, irises, reeds, rushes, and water hyacinths, which provide shelter for fish and other aquatic life, help to oxygenate the water, and absorb excess nutrients that can cause algae blooms and other problems. Whether you are looking to create a naturalistic pond or a formal garden feature, there are plenty of options available to suit your needs and preferences.
