Native Non-Flowering Marginal Collection
27th July 2018£3.88 inc. VAT
This British Native oxygenator grows long strands of attractive feathery fronds under water with dainty white flowers appearing above the water from May to June. It loves moving water but is also fine in still water. Please note the fronds are easily damaged during harvesting as they grow quite densely so you may experience some die-back initially, however fresh growth will soon restart along the jointed stems.
Planting position: Depths of 15 – 60cm. In new ponds or ponds with little sediment in the bottom best planted in baskets. Bunches are supplied ‘tied’ with a lead weight which should be removed if planting in a basket. If you plan to let them root in a natural or soil-lined pond the bunches can be held down under a stone or planting basket as an alternative to the lead weight -if so please specify no lead weight in comments box on checkout page.
Form: Bare root weighted
Recommended basket size 1 litre square
