Technical data

- German name: Arum
- Flowering time: IV-VI
- Winter hardiness: Zone 1
- Height: 30 / 40 cm
- Depth: 0 / -40 cm
With Arum italicum (arum), you are choosing a plant for your garden pond that is particularly impressive due to its structuring effect. There are often areas around ponds that are permanently slightly damp and are also occasionally shaded - this is exactly where the arum shows its strengths. It is suitable for visually defining edge zones, calming transitions and harmoniously complementing the planting without the pond edge appearing overloaded.
The plant reaches a height of approx. 30 to 40 cm and therefore fits well in the foreground to midground. Arum italicum is particularly attractive for the early season: the flowering period from April to June (IV-VI) already brings life to the edge planting when many summer-flowering pond plants are still being established. This creates a harmonious annual cycle - with an early accent that keeps your pond design interesting for longer.
For the location, the specified planting depth of 0 to -40 cm is a guide value for moist areas by the water. In the garden pond, we recommend placing the plant in the moist bank zone or in an easily controllable area so that you can easily control its growth. In permanently wet areas, a stable position is important - depending on the pond structure, a plant basket can help to position the plant securely and move it if necessary. Thanks to its hardiness zone 1, Arum italicum is suitable for long-term, perennial landscaping. This makes Arum italicum an interesting choice if you are looking for robust structural plants for damp, cooler locations.
Shipping note: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite the greatest care, it can happen that plants are slightly damaged by the post or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as broken branches. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open bodies of water such as lakes or biotopes.
Zoo Roco tip: In garden ponds, arum looks particularly beautiful behind low shallow-water plants, where it "builds up" the edge zone without obstructing the view of the water. Place it in the moist bank soil rather than freely in the open water - this keeps the plant stable and the edge of the pond neat.

Dwarf water lily - Nymphaea pygmaea rubra
CHF 35.00
Dwarf water lily Nymphaea pygmaea ‘Rubra’ red (18cm)The dwarf water lily Nymphaea pygmaea ‘Rubra’ brings an elegant splash of colour to the water’s surface with its red flowers. Thanks to its compact form, it is particularly suitable for smaller garden ponds as well as mini ponds and bowls. Ideal if you want a water lily that doesn’t take up too much space.Dwarf-form water lily – suitable for small water areasFlower colour: redGrowth: compact, for a controlled leaf areaArea of application: Garden pond, mini pond, tub/bowlTechnical dataBotanical name: Nymphaea pygmaea ‘Rubra’English name: Dwarf water lilyFlower colour: redPlanting depth: -10 to -40cmFlowering period: June to September
Pot size: approx. 18 cmWith the dwarf water lily Nymphaea pygmaea ‘Rubra’ you bring the typical water lily atmosphere into the garden – even if your pond is rather small or you want to plant in a mini pond or tub. Dwarf water lilies are designed to unfold a harmonious effect in a limited space: Floating leaves on the surface and an attractive blossom, without the water area being quickly completely covered. The ‘Rubra’ variety creates an elegant, easily visible splash of colour with its red flowers.Especially with smaller garden ponds, balanced planting is crucial. Water lilies that grow too vigorously can quickly dominate the surface and “close” the water effect. In comparison, a dwarf water lily remains more compact and is therefore a good choice if you want a calm, well-kept look and nevertheless do not want to do without the classic water lily eye-catcher. ‘Rubra’ is particularly effective when positioned so that you have a good view of the flowers from your seat or terrace – as the red shades clearly stand out against the water and greenery.For establishing, stable placement is important, ideally in a planting basket or a suitable container. This way the rhizome lies undisturbed, and you can adjust the position if necessary. If you are looking for a compact water lily with a strong colour, Nymphaea pygmaea ‘Rubra’ is a fitting choice for a natural yet controlled pond design.Note: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite the greatest care, it may occur that plants are slightly damaged during postal delivery or by other unforeseen events. This includes both brown leaves and bent branches. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open waters such as lakes or biotopes.
Zoo-Roco tip:
Put dwarf water lilies in a planting basket so you can easily adjust their position. If the plant is still small at first, start out higher (shallower) and lower them later – this often encourages quicker growth and flowering.

Cyperus alternifolius
– Cyprus grass for pond edgeCyperus alternifolius (Umbrella Plant) is a striking structural plant with umbrella-shaped growth for the garden pond. With a height of 60–80 cm, it brings height and clear lines to the bank and shallow water zone. It is suitable for 0 to –15 cm planting depth, and flowers from May to July (V–VII).Flowering time: V–VII (May to July)Height: approx. 60–80 cmPlanting depth: 0 to –15 cmPot size: approx. 18 cmPlant specifications: The typical umbrella-shaped growth creates a modern, tidy accent at the edge of the pond.With a planting depth of 0 to –15 cm, Cyprus grass can be flexibly placed in marginal and shallow water areas.The 18-cm pot provides a stable start and makes it easier to place at the pond.Technical data:Botanical name: Cyperus alternifoliusGerman name: Cyprus grass (Umbrella Plant)Height (cm): 60 / 80 cmPlanting depth: 0 / –15 cmFlowering time: V–VIIWinter hardiness: Zone 1 / 2Pot size: 18 cmWith Cyperus alternifolius (Cyprus grass / Umbrella Plant), you bring a pond edge plant into your garden that stands out immediately thanks to its distinctive, umbrella-shaped silhouette. It is precisely this clear shape that makes it so popular: it brings structure to the bank planting, looks tidy and sets an exciting contrast to soft-growing marsh and flowering plants. Cyprus grass looks particularly harmonious by modern ponds or clearly defined shorelines – but even in naturalistic areas, it can be a deliberately placed structural highlight.With a height of approx. 60 to 80 cm, Cyperus alternifolius is suitable for the middle to background of marginal planting. It visually enhances the bank zone without completely covering the pond. The stated flowering period from May to July (V–VII) complements the season, although in this plant, the leaf and growth form are usually the main focus. When planted in small groups, a calm, architectural effect is created; individually positioned, the Cyprus grass forms a clear focal point.
The recommended planting depth of 0 to –15 cm makes the plant ideal for the bank and shallow water zone. You can plant it directly in moist bank soil or place it in a very shallow water area.With delivery in an 18-cm pot, you get good root volume, making establishment easier and ensuring greater stability . For a neat pond edge and maximum control, a planting basket is a practical option – this keeps the plant where it works best, and can be easily moved as needed.Shipping note: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite the greatest care, it can occur that plants are slightly damaged through postal shipping or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as broken branches. We do not accept liability for this. Do not plant in open bodies of water such as lakes or biotopes.Zoo-Roco tip:
Place Cyperus alternifolius so that the ‘umbrellas’ are clearly visible at eye level – it looks best when it is slightly reflected in the water. For a tidy pond edge, position the pot or basket at a 0 to –15 cm depth and combine a low groundcover in front so that the transition looks natural.

The edges of ponds in particular often have transitions that quickly appear "hard" - such as stones, film edges or between plant baskets. Bachbunge helps to visually connect these areas: It grows low, looks calm and provides a natural finish without overloading the edge of the pond.A major advantage is the long flowering period from May to September (V-IX). This means that the border remains attractive and neat for much of the season. Due to its low growth height of approx. 10 to 20 cm, Veronica beccabunga fits particularly well in the foreground of the bank planting or as a "filler plant" in the shallow water zone. It can be combined excellently with taller structural plants, which can be placed behind it, while the brook brome in the foreground visually softens the edge.The recommended planting depth of 0 to -15 cm makes the plant very flexible: place it directly in moist bank soil or in a very shallow water area, depending on the pond structure. A plant basket is often helpful for a neat pond edge and easy maintenance, especially if you want to move the plant later. An evenly moist location is particularly important for growth.
Thanks to zone 1-2, Veronica beccabunga is suitable for perennial pond installations and is a good choice if you are looking for a low, uncomplicated plant for damp areas that blends harmoniously into a naturalistic pond design.Note on shipping: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged.

Cottongrass is an excellent choice for ponds that are designed to be close to nature or deliberately have a soft shoreline. Its grass-like growth brings structure to the edge zone without appearing heavy or dominant - ideal if you want to keep the water surface visually open. The white flowers appear from April to June (IV-VI) and create bright accents early in the year. This flower is particularly attractive by the water because it reflects beautifully on a calm surface and "brightens up" the shoreline. With a height of approx. 30 to 40 cm , cotton grass is perfect for the foreground to middle ground: it combines well with lower ground cover plants and also looks harmonious next to taller shore plants that can be placed in the background. The recommended planting depth of 0 to -15 cm makes Eriophorum angustifolium ideal for the shore and shallow water edge zone. Place the plant in moist bank soil or in a very shallow water area.If you prefer a clear pond edge or want to keep the position flexible later on, a plant basket is a practical solution - this keeps the plant exactly where it looks best. Thanks to its hardiness zone 1-2 , cotton grass is suitable for many regions and is an uncomplicated choice for perennial pond edge planting. It looks particularly attractive if you plant several plants slightly staggered - this creates a natural bank effect that harmonises the look of the pond.Shipping note: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite the greatest care, it can happen that plants are slightly damaged by the post or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as broken branches. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open bodies of water such as lakes or biotopes.
Zoo Roco tip: Cottongrass looks best when placed in small groups in the edge zone (0 to -15 cm) and combined with quieter green plants. If your water level fluctuates, place the pot a little higher at first and lower it gradually as it grows - the plant will usually take off more reliably this way.
