Best Oxygenating Pond Plants
Growers' Choice
- Fed up of your pond looking scummy? Well, we've got the collection for you! Curated by our pond specialist, you’ll receive the best native oxygenating pond plants, sent to you at the peak of their growth.
- Oxygenating plants release oxygen generated by photosynthesis into the pond; this is essential for pond wildlife and for keeping up bacteria levels in the water, in turn, helping keep algae under control.
- Please note: you’ll receive a set of plants all of the same variety. These hardy, deep water oxygenators are all fast-growing, easy to care for and perfect for more inaccessible parts of the pond.
- Plants within this collection include hornworts, pennyworts, curled pondweed and water violets, which are great for wildlife, benefitting newts and spawning fish.
