Wetland Native Planting

Wetland Native Planting

Restore biodiversity with UK-native wetland plants, perfect for nature reserves, ponds, marshes, large natural lakes, and ditch planting. These plants improve water quality, stabilise banks, and create vital habitats for wildlife, including wildfowl and amphibians. Ideal for rewilding projects, they help prevent erosion, support nesting birds, and enhance any wetland space with lush, natural growth. Grown in the UK for resilience, they are essential for sustainable, thriving ecosystems.
