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.

Marsh marigold (18 cm) – Caltha palustris
Acorus calamus – sweet flag for pond edges & shallow waterCaltha palustris is a classic spring-flowering plant for the garden pond and provides bright splashes of colour with its yellow flowers from March to May (III–V).

When the garden comes back to life after winter, it ensures a striking splash of colour by the water with its yellow flowers from March to May (III–V). Especially at the pond edge this is especially valuable: many marginal plants do not shoot up strongly until later – by contrast, the marsh marigold brings early colour and looks natural and harmonious in the process.With a height of about 30 to 40 cm the plant is ideal for the front to middle ground. It fits perfectly at pond edges, in damp border beds or in areas that are permanently moist to wet. The recommended planting depth of 0 to –15 cm makes it perfect for the bank and shallow water edge zone: directly in damp soil at the edge or standing slightly in water. Marsh marigold looks especially beautiful when you plant it in small groups – this creates a calm, natural area that visually softens the pond edge.The delivery in a 18-cm pot makes it easier to plant and gives the plant a good root volume from the start. If you want a very clear pond edge or want to keep the position flexible, a planting basket is a practical solution: this keeps the marsh marigold stable in the desired spot and can be easily moved if necessary.Thanks to winter hardiness zone 1–2, Caltha palustris is suitable for permanent pond installations in many regions and is an uncomplicated choice for a low-maintenance, natural pond edge planting.Note on shipping: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite the greatest care, it may happen that plants are slightly damaged during postal delivery or through other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as broken stems. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open waters such as lakes or biotopes. Zoo-Roco tip: Plant the marsh marigold where you often pass by in spring – it’s a perfect starting point for the pond season. If your water level fluctuates greatly in spring, place the plant in a planting basket at 0 to –15 cm so it stays stable and grows reliably.

Especially around ponds, the start of the season is crucial: While many marginal plants are still developing in spring, this primrose already brings colour from March to May (III–V). This makes the pond edge look well-tended and lively early on – ideal if you want your garden pond to be a focal point right from the start of the season.The plant remains pleasantly compact at around 20 to 30 cm in height. This makes it excellent for the foreground of pondside planting, for damp border beds or as a colourful accent between stones and stepping stones. ‘Alba’ looks particularly harmonious when you plant several in small groups: This creates a calm, natural effect and emphasises the shoreline without visually enclosing the water’s surface.The recommended planting depth of 0 to –15 cm gives you flexibility in placement. In practice, the Japanese primrose is ideal in damp bank soil or very shallow marginal areas where the soil remains consistently fresh. The 9 cm pot is perfect if you want to plant several specimens to achieve a visible effect quickly. With fluctuating water levels, a small planting basket can be useful to keep the plant stable and the site tidy.Thanks to Zone 1, Primula japonica ‘Alba’ is winter-hardy and is therefore well suited to perennial pond edge designs. A fitting choice if you want to make your pond edge attractive not only in summer but as early as spring.Note on shipping: We make every effort to ensure our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite the greatest care, it can happen that plants suffer slight damage during postal delivery or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as bent or broken stems.

If your marginal area becomes temporarily drier in the summer, place the primrose slightly more sheltered in damp soil (rather than deeper into the water) so that it remains evenly supplied.

It combines excellently with lower groundcovers and shallow-water plants that softly define the edge at the front, whilst the calamus behind provides height and structure. This creates a balanced overall look that appears natural and visually ‘frames’ the pond without obscuring the water surface. A major advantage is the flexible planting depth of 0 to –40 cm. This allows you to plant Acorus calamus in moist bank soil as well as in shallow water areas – depending on the layout of your pond.For many pond owners, a planting basket is a practical solution because it keeps the plant stable and makes it easier to move if necessary. This is particularly helpful in landscaped pond areas for keeping the edge zone well-maintained. Thanks to its specified hardiness (Zone 2–3), calamus is suitable for perennial pond schemes in many regions. This makes it a good choice if you are looking for a long-lasting, low-maintenance structural plant that reliably complements the pond edge and fits well into various planting concepts – from natural to modern.Note on shipping: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive at your address healthy and undamaged. Despite the utmost care, plants may sustain minor damage during postal delivery or due to other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as snapped stems. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open water such as lakes or biotopes.Zoo-Roco tip: Place Acorus calamus in the shallow water zone so that the stems gently ‘frame’ the edge, but the view into the water remains unobstructed. If you wish to keep growth under control, place the calamus in a planting basket and position it at a depth of 0 to –40 cm – this keeps the shoreline tidy and allows for adjustments at any time.

Variegated Houttuynia (18cm) - Houttuynia cordata 'Chameleon'
Colourful Houttuynia - Houttuynia cordata 'Chameleon' With its brightly coloured foliage, Houttuynia cordata 'Chameleon' brings a lively structure to the garden pond and wet border zones. At 30-40 cm tall, it remains compact and is ideal as a colourful foreground to taller waterside plants. It flowers from June to August (VI-VIII) and is suitable for planting at a depth of 0 to -15 cm.Area of application: Pond edge / wet edge zone / shallow water zoneFlowering period: VI-VIII (June to August)Winter hardiness: Zone 1, 2Pot: approx. 18 cmPlant specifications:At the edge of the pond, they not only provide flowering accents, but above all colour accents above the foliage - ideal for a permanently attractive bank zone.Due to the planting depth of 0 to -15 cm, the plant is suitable for moist marginal areas and the shallow water zone.At zone 1-2, it is suitable for perennial plantings and combines well with other pond edge plants.Technical data:Botanical name: Houttuynia cordata 'Chameleon'German name: Colourful HouttuyniaPlanting depth: 0 to -15 cmFlowering period: VI-VIII (June to August)Winter hardiness: Zone 1/2Pot: approx. 18 cmHouttuynia cordata 'Chameleon' brings colour to the garden pond - not only during a short flowering phase, but above all through its eye-catching, brightly coloured foliage. This is exactly what makes this plant so valuable for pond edge design: while many waterside plants primarily have an effect through their height or flowers, 'Chameleon' provides a lively foliage effect that keeps the edge area visually exciting throughout the season.The plant remains pleasantly compact at around 30 to 40 cm tall. This makes it ideal as a foreground plant in the bank zone, for example in front of irises or other taller pond edge perennials. It looks particularly attractive when planted in small groups or as colourful "islands" along the edge of the pond. This creates a natural rhythm without the planting appearing restless.The flowering period from June to August (VI-VIII) completes the overall picture, even if the leaf colour usually plays the main role in this variety. Thanks to the recommended planting depth of 0 to -15 cm, you can use Houttuynia cordata 'Chameleon' flexibly: directly in moist bank soil or in very shallow water. A plant basket is often useful for a neat, controllable design, especially if you want to keep the plant at a specific point. This keeps the edge of the pond neat and tidy and you can easily adjust the position if necessary. At zone 1-2, the plant is hardy and suitable for perennial pond installations. It is a good choice if you want to add colour and structure to your garden pond rather than just "green".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 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 is best to plant 'Chameleon' where you can see the edge of the pond every day: The leaf colouring looks particularly beautiful in contrast to dark stones or calm green plants. If you want a clear pond edge, plant the Houttuynia in a basket at a depth of 0 to -15 cm - this way the design can be easily controlled at all times.

Pennywort (18cm) - Lysimachia nummularia 'Aurea'
Pennywort for the garden pond - Lysimachia nummularia 'Aurea'The pennywort 'Aurea' is a flat-growing ground cover for damp edges around the garden pond. Yellow flowers appear from May to August (V-VIII) and brighten up the edge of the pond. With a height of 5-10 cm, it is ideal for greening edges, gaps and bank areas.Flowering time: V-VIII (May to August)Flower colour: yellowWinter hardiness: Zone 1 - 2Pot: approx. 18 cmPlant specifications:They quickly close gaps at the edge of the pond and create a natural, soft transition to the water surface.The yellow flowers in V-VIII bring colour to the shoreline for months.The low growth remains tidy and is hardy in zones 1-2 - ideal for permanent pond design.Technical data:Botanical name: Lysimachia nummularia 'Aurea'German name: PfenningkrautPlanting depth: up to -40 cmFlowering time: V-VIIIWinter hardiness: Zone 1/2Pot: approx. 18 cmLysimachia nummularia 'Aurea' (pennywort) is a reliable, low-growing ground cover for your garden pond. The edges of banks in particular often have areas where open soil remains visible or hard transitions (e.g. stones, liner edges, plant baskets) appear visually "cut off". This is exactly where pennywort is ideal: it grows creeping, connects areas and creates a natural, soft line along the water. The 'Aurea' variety stands out with its friendly, light-coloured effect and fits perfectly into pond edge plantings that are intended to look lighter and fresher overall.During the flowering period from May to August (V-VIII), yellow flowers appear, giving the edge area a lively appearance without dominating it. With a height of just 5 to 10 cm, the plant remains deliberately low - ideal if you want to keep a clear view of the water surface. Pennywort can be used in a variety of ways around the garden pond: as a border along the edge of the pond, between stones, on the edge of stepping stones or as a "carpet" in front of taller waterside plants. It looks particularly attractive if you plant several plants close together to quickly create a closed area.An evenly moist location is important for good growth - especially in marginal zones, which can dry out more quickly in summer. As there is no information on the exact planting depth, the recommendation remains practical: plant Lysimachia nummularia 'Aurea' in moist bank soil or at the edge of the swamp zone where the soil does not become permanently dry. This allows the shoots to develop stably and the plant can utilise its ground-covering effect. Thanks to zone 1-2, it is also well suited for perennial pond edge 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: If you want to conceal a foil edge: Place the pennywort 'Aurea' directly in front of it and allow it to "flow" slightly over stones or edges. This gives the edge of the pond a more natural look - and you get a neat finish without tall plants obscuring the view.
