There are often areas around the garden pond that are evenly moist and need a plant that gives the edge a natural look without becoming too tall. This is exactly what English water mint is suitable for: it brings structure to the bank zone and ensures a neat, flowering overall appearance in the second half of summer. The flowering period from July to September (VII-IX) is particularly valuable when many spring and early summer bloomers are already fading. This keeps your pond edge attractive for longer and gives it a lively appearance even at the height of the season.With a height of approx. 30 to 40 cm, Preslia cervina 'Alba' can be used in a variety of ways: as a quiet border, as a filling plant between stones and edges or as a companion to higher-growing shore plants. Planted in groups, it creates a harmonious area that visually softens the transition between water and garden.The recommended planting depth of 0 to -15 cm makes it suitable for the bank and shallow water zone. Depending on the pond structure, you can either place the plant directly in moist soil around the edge or slightly into the water, where it will stand securely. The 18 cm pot is particularly practical as it already has a good volume and makes it easier to place in the pond. If you want a very clear pond edge or want to keep the plant in check, a plant basket is a good option - this keeps everything tidy and you can adjust the position at any time. Thanks to its hardiness zone 1-2, Preslia cervina 'Alba' is suitable for permanent garden ponds and is a harmonious choice if you are looking for a reliable, compact flowering plant for the edge of the pond.Shipping note: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged.
