Carex panacea - Sedge for pond edges & shallow water


Carex panacea is a robust sedge for moist shore areas and the shallow water edge of the garden pond. At 60-80 cm tall, it brings calm, natural structure to the planting. The flowering period is from June to July (VI-VII), it is suitable for 0 to -15 cm planting depth and hardy in zones 1-2.


  • Flowering time: VI-VII (June to July)
  • Height: approx. 60-80 cm
  • Planting depth: 0 to -15 cm
  • Pot size: approx. 9cm


Plant specifications:

  • They create a stable, near-natural structure at the edge of the pond and visually "frame" the shoreline.
  • Thanks to the planting depth of 0 to -15 cm, the sedge can be placed flexibly at the moist edge or in very shallow water.
  • At zone 1-2, Carex panacea is suitable for perennial, low-maintenance pond plantings.


Technical data:

  • Botanical name: Carex panacea
  • German name: Sedge 
  • Height (cm): 60 / 80 cm
  • Planting depth: 0 / -15 cm
  • Flowering time: VI-VII
  • Winter hardiness: Zone 1 / 2
  • Pot size: 9 cm

Carex panacea is a reliable structural grass for your garden pond that permanently organises the bank zone and visually embeds the pond. On pond edges in particular, it is helpful to use plants that not only bloom sporadically but also create a calm, natural line through their growth habit. Sedges are particularly suitable for this: they look well-groomed, can be combined in many ways and bring stability to the edge planting.

With a height of approx. 60 to 80 cm, Carex panacea is ideal for the centre to background of the bank planting. It can serve as a green frame that structures the edge of the pond, while lower ground cover and flowering shallow water plants in the foreground soften the transition to the water. The flowering period from June to July (VI-VII) falls in the early summer phase and complements the course of the season, even if the foliage and structural effect is usually the focus with sedges.

The recommended planting depth of 0 to -15 cm makes the plant flexible to use: directly in moist bank soil or in a very shallow water area. Depending on the pond structure, you can decide whether the sedge should act more as a marginal plant or as a shallow water element.

The 9 cm pot is particularly suitable if you want to place several plants to quickly create an even, natural shoreline. For a neat pond edge and better control, a planting basket can be useful - this keeps the plant stable and makes it easier to move if necessary. Thanks to zone 1-2, Carex panacea is hardy and therefore well suited to perennial pond installations. A good choice if you are looking for a quiet, low-maintenance structural plant for your garden pond that blends harmoniously into near-natural bank designs.


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: It's best to plant sedges in small groups at the edge of the pond, slightly staggered rather than in a straight line - this gives the bank zone a more natural look. If you want to keep the edge very neat, place Carex panacea in the plant basket at a depth of 0 to -15 cm and combine a low ground cover at the front for a soft finish.

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.

When the garden starts up again after the winter, its yellow flowers from March to May (III-V) provide a bright eye-catcher by the water.

Caltha palustris looks particularly beautiful when planted in small groups - this creates a calm, natural area that visually softens the edge of the pond.Delivery in a 9 cm pot makes planting easier. If you want a very clear pond edge or want to keep the position flexible, a plant basket is a practical solution: it keeps the marsh marigold stable in the desired place and can be easily moved if necessary.Thanks to its hardiness zone 1-2, Caltha palustris is suitable for permanent pond installations in many regions and is an uncomplicated choice for easy-care, near-natural pond edge planting.Shipping note: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged.

It brings lightness to the edge, where a clear transition between water plants and garden beds is often required.At a growth height of approx. 30 to 50 cm, the plant remains pleasantly compact and thus fits perfectly into the foreground to midground of the bank planting. By the pond, Achillea ptarmica is especially harmonious when planted in small groups: The white flowers create clear, friendly accents and can be very well combined with typical pond edge plants and ornamental grasses.The flowering period from June to July is ideal for visibly enlivening the border zone in early summer – precisely when many pond plantings are taking shape and the garden is being used more again. For use at the garden pond, the indication 0 to –15 cm is a good reference: place the perennial in the bank or border zone, where the soil remains evenly moist.Depending on the pond setup, this may mean standing directly at the edge in moist soil or being used in a planting basket in a very shallow area. It is important that the location does not dry out permanently so that the plant remains vital and develops stably. Achillea ptarmica is supplied in a P9 pot (approx. 9–10 cm). Thanks to winter hardiness zone 1–2 it is suitable for many locations and is an appropriate choice for long-lasting, easy-care pond edge planting.Note on shipping: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite the utmost care, it can happen that plants are slightly damaged by postal shipping or other unforeseen events (e.g. brown leaves or broken shoots). We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open waters such as lakes or biotopes.Zoo-Roco tip: Plant Achillea ptarmica in small groups (e.g. 3–5 plants), so that the white flowers in the bed appear calm and "flat". After flowering, light pruning often encourages neat new growth.
