cape water lily - Aponogeton Distachyos

Purchased: Pond clear package - M

My pond was quite murky, so after a good conversation with Simon, I decided to follow the advice: more oxygen plants and a bottle of bacteria. I ordered the recommended package, but after four days no improvement was visible. Full of disappointment, I contacted customer service. They advised me to be patient and give the process 2-3 weeks. Although I had my doubts about it, I decided to wait anyway. And what turned out? After two weeks, the water started to clear and I even saw frogs that I had never noticed before! Thanks team vdvelde, and apologies for my impatience!

Purchased: POND SUBSTRATE pond substrate - 40 liters

Last year I had a landscaper install a plant filter at my swimming pond, recommending lava and some plants from the local garden center. Unfortunately, things went completely wrong; the plants died one by one and I suffered an algae infestation. After contacting customer service, I was advised to replace the lava with pond substrate and order some more plants. Now, several months later, the plants are growing well, and my filter is finally free of algae.

Purchased: Complete Pond Package - S - Red

I had been dreaming of having a pond in my urban garden for some time, but it always seemed like such a hassle. Online I found a complete package and decided to take the gamble, although I was skeptical about the quality of plants sent through the mail. But to my surprise, everything was delivered neatly and well-packaged. Within no time I had my pond set up. To my delight, after only two months I saw the first water lily bloom, and as icing on the cake I discovered salamanders in my pond. No idea how they got there, but it only adds to the joy. Truly enjoying it!

Purchased: Simons Pond Advice Book

This book completely meets my expectations. A great guide with lots of great tips on pond construction, pond plants and design.

Highly recommended purchase on my part.

Great book!

Purchased: Hardy Blue Water Lily - Nymphaea Blue Queen

Thank you very much for the generous delivery of the swamp iris "Blue Lis".

The new plants have been planted and I am curious to see if they will bloom this year.

There is good news about the water lily "Blue Queen": It is also blooming here in blue - and how beautiful!

Purchased: Soil Dirt Pond Removal Package - M

After years of accumulation by fish, quite a bit of silt had accumulated in my pond.

At first I thought about a pond vacuum cleaner, but after contacting customer service I opted for the bottom debris removal package. I was skeptical, especially because the water became murky the first week. But after a month, the silt has reduced considerably. No hassle with a vacuum cleaner, and great results!
I am a fan.

Purchased: Water Lily Field - 6 pieces - Nymphaea Drop & Grow

As lovers of greenery, we were looking for a sustainable addition to our project. Van der Velde's water lilies were a hit! With DROP & GROW, it was really simple: plant and enjoy. We asked for different varieties and this was no problem either. Delivery was perfect. Within a week we already saw leaves above water, and meanwhile there are several flowers blooming. Both we and our customer are very enthusiastic.

Purchased: Oxygen Plants Pond Package - L

My fish were gasping for air, so I was looking for an air pump. Then I read that oxygen plants could also solve this problem. I ordered the package that fit my pond, and now my fish are swimming around carefree again. Additional plus: my pond water is much clearer. Fish happy, me happy!

Purchased: Complete Pond Package - XS

This handy kit helped me set up my mini pond quickly. Everything you need is included! The service and advice were top notch, much better than at the garden center where no one really knows anything.

Purchased: Complete Plant Filter Package - L
