Pond Plants For Bogs, Streams & Water Gardens

Why Do I Need Plants in My Pond?

Plants are one of the most important features of a pond or water garden. Not only do they enhance the beauty of your pond with lush foliage and colourful flowers, they also reduce algae growth and improve water quality by consuming nutrients from the water. Plus, they provide shelter for fish and other aquatic creatures. This is why we carry such a wide range of plants at Hydrosphere Water Gardens and Fisheries.

So no matter what type of plant you are looking for, we have something that will make a beautiful addition to your pond.

Daily Pond Tip

One of the most significant advantages of using  Kaldnes or similar filter media in a moving bed filter is its self-cleaning property. As the media moves within the filter, it continuously rubs against other media pieces. This abrasion helps to slough off excess biofilm, preventing the media from becoming clogged and maintaining optimal filtration efficiency.
