You know you are an adult when you get up Saturday morning and think about your plants instead of a party. Plants are the quietest of friends who never complain, but they give you hints. Dry leaves? Not enough water. Stretched stems? Too little light. They talk in their own language. Listen to them and give them some love with proper care tips.

Oxygen plants are a must for any pond!
Sufficiently oxygenating underwater plants in the pond means you will NOT need a pump and filter. Oxygenating plants filter the water and block the sun. This causes the water to heat up less which reduces the formation of algae. Oxygen plants also provide shelter for fish from impending danger. All of our oxygen plants are hardy and are supplied from our own aquatic plant nursery with a 100% growth and flowering guarantee. For oxygen plants, I recommend a minimum of 10 to 12 individual plants per m³ (1000 liters of water) and 2 baskets of 4 plants per m². The amount needed depends on how quickly you want the pond to balance and your visual requirements.

Loose oxygen plants
Ideal for the deeper part of the pond.
Recommendation: 10-12 plants per 1,000 liters of water
Baskets of oxygen plants
Suitable for shallow areas, provide natural elevation differences and help prevent algae.
Recommendation: 2 baskets per 1 m²
