Plants for Container Ponds Collection - Plants for Ponds

Plants for Container Ponds

Chosen and sized to suit a small pond in a pot or trough. Everything here is a slow to medium grower, so it fills out steadily without overrunning your container in a single season.

A container pond can sit above ground as a feature on a patio, or be sunk into a quiet corner of the garden where amphibians can reach it more easily. This collection brings together marginals, oxygenators, waterlilies, deep water and floating plants, so you can build a small but balanced pond.
