Technical data

  • Botanical name: Oenanthe fistulosa 'Flamingo'
  • German name: Colourful water fennel
  • Winter hardiness: Zone 1 Height: 40 / 60 cm
  • Planting depth: 0 / -15 cm
  • Pot: approx. 18 cm


With Oenanthe fistulosa 'Flamingo', you are opting for a pond edge plant that visually enhances your shoreline and looks natural at the same time. Plants that soften the transition between water and garden and add structure to the planting are particularly popular around garden ponds. This is exactly where the variegated water fennel fits in perfectly: with a height of approx. 40 to 60 cm, it blends in perfectly with the middle level - not too low, but also not so high that it obscures the view of the water surface.

The white flowers appear from June to August (VI-VIII) and provide a fresh, bright accent by the water in the main season. 'Flamingo' looks particularly beautiful when planted in small groups or used as a connecting element between more compact marginal plants and taller waterside perennials. This creates a calm, harmonious overall picture at the edge of the pond that doesn't look "thrown together", but as if it's all of a piece.

The recommended planting depth of 0 to -15 cm makes Oenanthe fistulosa 'Flamingo' ideal for the shore and shallow water zone. You can place the plant directly on the moist edge or slightly in the water - depending on the pond structure and desired effect. The pot (approx. 18 cm) already provides a good volume for a safe start. If you value a neat, controllable pond edge, a plant basket is particularly practical: this keeps the plant stable and you can easily move it later if necessary. With hardiness zone 1, the variegated water fennel is suitable for many regions and supports long-term, low-maintenance pond design.


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: Place Oenanthe 'Flamingo' at the edge of the pond so that the flowers are slightly above the water line - the plant then looks particularly natural and reflects beautifully in the water. For a tidy edge zone, we recommend a planting basket at a depth of 0 to -15 cm: this keeps the plant where it looks best and you can keep the design under control at all times.

Dwarf water lily - Nymphaea pygmaea rubra
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.

It is suitable for a planting depth of 0 to -15 cm and hardy in zones 1-2.Flower colour: yellowFlowering time: V-IX (May to September)Height: approx. 20-30 cmPot size: approx. 9cmPlant specifications:You get a compact marginal plant that naturally embeds the pond without obscuring the view of the water.The long flowering period V-IX brings splashes of yellow colour to the bank zone for many weeks.Thanks to the planting depth of 0 to -15 cm, the plant can be placed flexibly at the moist edge or in very shallow water.Technical data:Botanical name: Ranunculus flammulaGerman name: Burning buttercup (also: small marsh buttercup, depending on the name)Height: 20 / 30 cmPlanting depth: 0 / -15 cmFlowering time: V-IXWinter hardiness: Zone 1 / 2Pot size: 9 cmRanunculus flammula (Lesser Spearwort) is a delicate but effective plant for the shore and shallow water zone of your garden pond. Low plants are particularly important at the edge of the pond so that the water surface remains visible and the transition to the surrounding area appears soft. Ranunculus flammula fulfils exactly this task: it remains compact, can be easily placed between stones or along edges and creates a natural, "grown" look. The long flowering period from May to September (V-IX) is particularly attractive. The yellow flowers bring small, friendly accents of colour to the edge of the pond for many weeks - ideal if you want a permanently lively edge zone rather than just selective flowering phases.With a growth height of approx. 20 to 30 cm, the plant is suitable for the foreground: it can close gaps, visually soften edges and create a two-dimensional effect without becoming dominant. Planted in small groups, it creates a calm, natural impression; planted individually, it provides a targeted splash of colour.The recommended planting depth of 0 to -15 cm makes Ranunculus flammula very flexible. You can plant it in moist bank soil or in very shallow water - depending on how your pond is constructed. The 9 cm pot is particularly suitable if you want to place several plants in order to quickly achieve a cohesive look along the shoreline. For a neat pond edge, a plant basket can be helpful so that the plant is stable and can be easily moved if necessary. Thanks to zone 1-2, Ranunculus flammula is hardy and suitable for perennial pond installations.It is a good choice if you are looking for a low, flowering plant for the edge of the pond that blends harmoniously into naturalistic planting schemes.Note on shipping: 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: Plant Ranunculus flammula where you want a fine "bank edge" - for example along stones or at the edge of planting baskets. In practice, the plant often gets off to a particularly good start if it is initially placed at 0 to -5 cm and later (if desired) at a depth of -15 cm.

Sparganium erectum – Bur-reed for pond edge & shallow waterSparganium erectum is a vigorous bank and shallow water plant that naturally structures and stably “frames” pond edges. With a height of 60–80 cm, it is ideal for the middle to background of the bank zone. It can be planted at a depth of 0 to –40 cm and flowers from May to August (V–VIII).Area of use: Pond edge / bank zone / shallow water zoneFlowering time: V–VIII (May to August)Height: approx. 60–80 cmPot size: approx. 9cmPlant specifications: You bring a robust structural plant to the pond edge, ensuring a natural, “grown” bank appearance.Owing to the planting depth of 0 to –40 cm, bur-reed is flexible in use – from the moist edge to the shallow water area.With zone 2–3, Sparganium erectum is suitable for perennial garden ponds in many regions.Technical data:Botanical name: Sparganium erectumGerman name: bur-reed (engl. Burreed)Height (cm): 60 / 80 cmPlanting depth: 0 / –40 cmFlowering time: V–VIIIWinter hardiness zone: Zone 2 / 3Pot size: 9 cmWith Sparganium erectum (bur-reed / Burreed) you are choosing a proven plant for naturalistic pond edge design. It is particularly suitable if the bank area is to be not only flowering but also permanently structured. Bur-reed grows upright and brings stability to the bank zone – ideal for visually allying the transition between water surface and garden and for giving the pond an “embedded” appearance.With a growth height of about 60 to 80 cm, Sparganium erectum fits in the middle to background of the border planting. There it can serve as a green frame in front of which lower pond-edge plants and ground covers are shown off to particular effect. The flowering period from May to August (V–VIII) complements the season, even though for this species the structuring effect via leaf and growth form often takes centre stage. For a harmonious appearance, it is recommended to plant in small groups or as a recurring element along the bank line.The recommended planting depth of 0 to –40 cm allows flexible placement: directly into moist bank soil or the shallow water area, depending on pond layout. This allows you to control how present the plant is in the overall look. The 9-cm pot is ideal if you want to plant several specimens in order to quickly achieve a natural bank effect. For a controllable, neat pond edge, a planting basket can be useful – this way, Sparganium erectum remains in the intended spot and is easier to move if necessary.Thanks to zone 2–3, bur-reed is hardy and suitable for perennial pond systems. It is a good choice if you are looking for a robust, long-lived marginal plant that permanently structures the pond edge and blends harmoniously into naturalistic planting schemes.Note on shipping: We take great care to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite the utmost care, it can happen that plants are slightly damaged by postal transport or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as broken branches. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open waters such as lakes or biotopes.Zoo-Roco tip: Do not plant Sparganium erectum in the centre of the pond, but as a border plant along the pond edge. If you are unsure at first, start at about –10 to –20 cm depth and gradually lower the plant towards –40 cm – this makes it easy to find the optimal position in your own pond.

It is especially effective in group plantings or as a tranquil background for blooming marsh plants. Thanks to the recommended planting depth of 0 to –40 cm, you can use it flexibly – directly at the edge or in shallow planting baskets in the water.The plant is delivered in an approx. 10 cm pot (basket/ready cultivation) and with a growth height of approx. 80–120 cm (depending on development stage). For good establishment, it is advisable to place the plant stably after planting and to choose a location that provides enough space for its development.Important note: Please do not plant this species in open bodies of water such as lakes or biotopes, as aquatic plants can spread depending on their environment. We pack your plants with great care to ensure they arrive in good health. Nevertheless, slight transport damage (e.g. brown leaves or bent shoots) may occasionally occur during postal shipping. Such visual impairments are generally uncritical for establishment.Zoo-Roco tip: When planting cattails in the pond, place them in a planting basket and limit the root space. This keeps the shore area tidy, and you can easily move or divide the plant if necessary.

Valeriana officinalis – Valerian for pond edge & bank zoneValeriana officinalis (valerian) is a stately, natural-looking perennial for moist areas around the garden pond. With 60–100 cm height, it adds structure to the bank zone without appearing artificial. The flowering period is from May to August (V–VIII), it is suitable for 0 to –15 cm planting depth and hardy in zone 1–2.Flowering period: V–VIII (May to August)Height: approx. 60–100 cmPlanting depth: 0 to –15 cmPot size: approx. 9cmPlant specifications:You receive a robust waterside perennial that naturally enhances the pond edge and adds height to the planting.Due to the long flowering period V–VIII, the edge zone remains attractive and appears well-groomed for months.Thanks to planting depth 0 to –15 cm, valerian can be flexibly placed in moist border areas and very shallow zones.Technical data:Botanical name: Valeriana officinalisEnglish name: ValerianHeight (cm): 60 / 100 cmPlanting depth: 0 / –15 cmFlowering period: V–VIIIWinter hardiness zone: Zone 1 / 2Pot size: 9 cmWith Valeriana officinalis (valerian) you are choosing a waterside perennial for the garden pond that looks particularly natural and gives the edge planting noticeably more height and depth. Especially with ponds, a “shallow” impression is quickly created if only low plants are standing in the marginal area. Valerian creates a beautiful counterpoint here: it grows upright, brings volume to the bank zone and can be combined excellently with lower pond edge plants that soften the transition to the water in the foreground.The flowering period from May to August (V–VIII) ensures that the pond edge appears lively for much of the season. As there is no indication of flower colour, this point remains neutral – in the garden, however, the overall effect of height, structure and flowering period is often the focus for valerian anyway. With a growth height of approx. 60 to 100 cm, the plant is ideal for the middle to background of the bank planting or for moist border beds next to the pond.The recommended planting depth of 0 to –15 cm makes Valeriana officinalis flexible in use: place it in moist bank soil or in very shallow areas, depending on pond layout. Especially if the water level fluctuates, it is advisable to place the plant so that it permanently receives enough moisture without being “too deep”.The 9-cm pot is ideal if you wish to plant several plants, to achieve a natural, full covering more quickly. Thanks to zone 1–2, valerian is suitable for perennial pond installations in many regions and is a good choice if you want to design the pond edge in a natural, low-maintenance way and with noticeable structure.Shipping 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 by postal transit or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as bent branches. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open bodies of water such as lakes or biotopes.Zoo-Roco tip: If you want a natural bank look, do not plant valerian individually, but in small groups (e.g. 3 pieces) slightly staggered behind lower marginal plants. This way, the pond edge appears deeper and more “grown”, and the taller stems are more stable in the overall picture.

Dwarf rush (18cm) - Juncus ensifolius
Juncus ensifolius - dwarf rush for the garden pondThe dwarf rush is a compact, grass-like pond edge plant that gives banks and shallow water zones a clean visual structure. At 30-40 cm tall, it is ideal for the edge without obscuring the view of the water. It flowers from June to August (VI-VIII) and is hardy in zones 1-2.Flowering period: VI-VIII (June to August)Flower colour: rust redWinter hardiness: Zone 1 - 2Pot: approx. 18 cmPlant specifications:They give the pond edge a calm, natural structure and neatly fill gaps between stones or plant baskets.The planting depth of 0 to -15 cm allows the dwarf rush to be placed flexibly in marginal and shallow water zones.Thanks to zone 1-2, it is suitable for perennial, low-maintenance pond planting.Technical data:Botanical name: Juncus ensifoliusGerman name: Dwarf rushPlanting depth: up to -15 cmFlowering time: VI-VIIWinter hardiness: Zone 1/2Pot: approx. 18 cmWith Juncus ensifolius (dwarf rush), you can choose a plant for your garden pond that impresses with its clear, grass-like structure. Such "calming elements" are particularly important around ponds: they bring order to the bank planting, make transitions look more natural and prevent the edge area from appearing visually restless.Thanks to its compact height of approx. 30 to 40 cm, the dwarf rush is ideal for the foreground to midground - where you want structure but want the water surface to remain visible. The dwarf rush can be used very flexibly as it is suitable for a planting depth of 0 to -15 cm. This makes it perfect for the bank and shallow water zone: directly in moist marginal soil or standing slightly in the water.It looks particularly attractive when planted in small groups or as a recurring element along the edge of the pond. This creates a natural rhythm that visually "captures" the pond. The flowering period is from June to August (VI-VIII). Even if the flowers are often not the centre of attention with rushes, the seasonal indication gives you a good orientation for the development over the summer.Due to its hardiness (zone 1-2), Juncus ensifolius is suitable for perennial pond installations and is an easy-care addition to naturalised, permanent shoreline areas. For a clean, controllable pond design, we recommend using it in a plant basket, depending on the design. This ensures that the plant remains stable in the desired position and you can easily move or divide it if necessary.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: Use the dwarf rush as a "framing plant": place it along the edge of the pond at a depth of 0 to -15 cm to make transitions between stones, the edge of the liner and higher-growing shore plants appear calmer. The line remains particularly clean and easy to maintain in plant baskets.

Myosotis palustris is particularly interesting for pond design if you want a planting that is not too tall and does not obscure the view of the water. Place the plant in evenly moist soil at the edge or in the swamp zone - there it can establish itself well.The pot (approx. 18 cm) provides a solid starting volume and makes it easier to place in the desired location. If you prefer a clear edge to the pond, a plant basket can be useful to keep the plant where it will look best. Thanks to its hardiness zone 1-2, the marsh forget-me-not is suitable for permanent garden ponds and is an uncomplicated addition to near-natural bank plantings.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: For a particularly natural look, place the marsh forget-me-not in small groups along the shoreline. If you are unsure how wet the location should be: place the plant on the wet edge first (not too deep in the water) - this makes it easy to find the perfect area by the garden pond.
