Product information "Creeping Mazus blue (18cm) - Mazus reptans"

Creeping Mazus for the garden pond – Mazus reptans blue


Mazus reptans blue is a low-growing ground cover that quickly greens the damp edge areas around the garden pond. The white flowers appear from April to September (IV–IX) and provide a neat, fresh impression for a long time. Thanks to zone 1–2, the plant is suitable for perennial plantings.


  • Flowering period: IV–IX (April to September)
  • Flower colour: blue
  • Winter hardiness: Zone 1 - 2
  • Pot: approx. 18 cm


Plant specifications

  • They quickly close gaps at the edge of the pond and create a natural, soft transition between water and garden.
  • The long flowering period IV–IX keeps the border attractive for many months.
  • The low, creeping growth looks neat and helps to reduce open soil in damp areas.


Technical data:

  • Botanical name: Mazus reptans (blue)
  • German name: Creeping Mazus
  • Height: 10 - 15 cm
  • Planting depth: Bank zone
  • Flowering period: VI–IX
  • Winter hardiness zone: Zone 1/2


With Mazus reptans blue you get a reliable ground cover for damp locations – ideal for landscaping around the garden pond. Especially at the banks, in the marsh zone or along streams, small gaps often occur where open soil remains visible. Here, creeping Mazus provides a natural finish: it grows flat, visually connects different planting areas and makes the transition from water to garden appear much softer.

A particular advantage is the long flowering period from April to September (IV–IX). In this way, Mazus reptans brings bright accents to the border planting for many months and at the same time looks neat, without you having to constantly replant or touch up. The white flowers fit into virtually any pond design – whether naturalistic or more modern – and can be easily combined with taller waterside plants. This makes Mazus particularly suitable as a "carpet" in the foreground, while structure-giving pond plants complete the picture behind it.

For placement at the garden pond we recommend a location that stays evenly damp. Plant the Mazus where you want a dense finish – for example at the pond edge, between stones or at the edge of stepping stones. This not only keeps the bank zone visually calmer, it also appears more stable and less "torn up". As there is no information on height, planting depth and pot size, these points remain neutral; in practice, the main thing is a damp, suitable location at the edge.


Shipping note: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive with you healthy and undamaged. Despite the greatest care, it can happen that plants are slightly damaged by postal delivery or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as bent branches. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open waters such as lakes or biotopes.


Zoo-Roco tip: Plant Mazus reptans white at the pond edge where you want to break up "hard edges" – e.g. between stones or along the liner edge. If the location becomes temporarily drier in summer, a thin layer of fine gravel or mulch at the edge will help to keep the soil moist for longer.

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.

Japanese Iris purple (18cm) - Iris kaempferi
Iris kaempferi - Japanese iris purple for pond edgeThe Japanese iris brings an elegant, calm colour effect to the garden pond with its purple flowers. With a height of 60-80 cm, it is ideal for damp marginal zones and shallow water edges. It flowers from May to July (V-VII) and is hardy in zones 1-2.Flowering time: V-VII (May to July)Flower colour: purpleWinter hardiness: Zone 1, 2Pot: approx. 18 cmPlant specifications:They add an elegant purple colour accent to the edge of the pond and visibly enhance the shoreline.Thanks to its planting depth of 0 to -15 cm, Japanese iris is perfect for damp borders and very shallow areas. Zone 1-2 makes it suitable for perennial pond edge planting in many regions.Technical data:Botanical name: Iris kaempferiGerman name: Japanese IrisPlanting depth: 0 to -15 cmFlowering time: V-VII (May to July)Winter hardiness: Zone 1/2Pot: approx. 18 cmWith Iris kaempferi (Japanese iris), you can create a particularly stylish garden pond: the purple flowers look elegant and create a clear accent that contrasts beautifully with green plants along the banks. The edges of ponds in particular often have areas that are evenly moist and are ideal for iris species. Japanese iris is an attractive choice here if you are looking for a plant that provides structure and at the same time creates a seasonal highlight with its flowers.The Japanese iris reaches a height of approx. 60 to 80 cm. This makes it perfect for the centre to background of a pond edge planting: low ground cover or shallow water plants in front, with the iris behind as a "frame" that gives depth to the pond edge. The flowering period from May to July (V-VII) ensures that your pond looks particularly attractive in the early to middle gardening season. Planted in small groups, it creates a calm, two-dimensional effect; planted individually, it becomes a focal point. The recommended planting depth of 0 to -15 cm makes Iris kaempferi ideal for damp border areas. It can be planted directly in moist bank soil or - depending on the pond structure - positioned in a very shallow area. A planting basket is often practical for a clean, controllable pond edge because the plant is stable and can be repositioned if necessary.Thanks to its hardiness zone 1-2, Japanese iris is suitable for perennial ponds and is a good addition if you want to create a permanent shoreline with clear flower accents.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: Place the Japanese iris so that it is clearly visible from your favourite viewing angle - purple flowers look particularly beautiful when they are slightly reflected in the water. Place them at a depth of 0 to -15 cm or in permanently moist soil and combine with low ground cover plants at the front to show the iris to its best advantage.

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.

We pack your plants with great care to ensure they arrive healthy. Nevertheless, minor transport damage may occasionally occur during postal shipping (e.g. brown leaves or bent shoots). Such cosmetic damage is generally not critical for establishment.Zoo-Roco tip: If you are planting cattails in the pond, place them in a planting basket and limit the root area. This keeps the bank area neat, and you can easily move or divide the plant if required.

Valerian creates a beautiful contrast here: it grows upright, adds volume to the shoreline zone and can be excellently combined with lower pond edge plants, which in the foreground gently soften the transition to the water.The flowering period from May to August (V–VIII) ensures that the pond edge looks lively for much of the season. As there is no information on flower colour, this point remains neutral – in the garden image, however, the overall effect of height, structure and flowering period is often the main focus with valerian. With a growth height of approx. 60 to 100 cm, the plant is ideal for the middle to background of the shoreline planting or for moist border beds next to the pond.The recommended planting depth of 0 to –15 cm makes Valeriana officinalis versatile: Plant it in moist shoreline soil or in very shallow areas, depending on pond structure. Especially with fluctuating water levels, it is advisable to place the plant so that it always gets enough moisture without “standing too deep”.The 9 cm pot is ideal if you want to plant several specimens, to achieve a natural, expansive appearance more quickly. Thanks to zone 1–2, valerian is suitable for perennial pond setups in many regions and is a good choice if you want to design the pond edge to be natural, easy to care for, and with distinct structure.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 by postal delivery or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as bent stems. We assume no liability for this. Do not plant in open waters such as lakes or biotopes.Zoo-Roco tip: If you want a natural shoreline look, do not plant valerian individually, but in small groups (e.g. 3 plants) slightly staggered behind lower border plants. This makes the pond edge appear deeper and more “seasoned”, and the taller stems stand more stably in the overall impression.

Bachbunge (9 cm) – Veronica beccabunga
Veronica beccabunga – Brooklime for pond edge & banksVeronica beccabunga (Brooklime) is a low-growing pond-edge plant for damp banks and the shallow water zone. It is suitable for a planting depth of 0 to –15 cm and remains pleasantly compact at a height of 10–20 cm. The flowering period runs from May to September (V–IX).Flowering period: V–IX (May to September)Hardiness/Zone: Zone 1–2Height: approx. 10–20 cmPot size: approx. 9cmSpecifications for the plant:They visually green pond edges and stream courses softly and naturally, without obstructing the view of the water. Thanks to the long flowering period V–IX, the border zone remains lively for many weeks.With zone 1–2, brooklime is suitable for perennial, low-maintenance pond plantings.Technical data:Botanical name: Veronica beccabungaGerman name: BrooklimeFlowering period: V–IXWinter hardiness zones: Zone 1 / 2Height: approx. 10–20 cmPlanting depth: 0 to –15 cmWith Veronica beccabunga (Brooklime) you are choosing a compact, natural-looking plant for garden ponds, streams and damp banks. Especially at pond edges there are often transitions that can quickly appear ‘harsh’ – for example at stones, liner edges or between plant baskets. Brooklime helps to visually connect these areas: it grows low, has a calm appearance, and provides a natural finish without overloading the pond edge.A major advantage is the long flowering period from May to September (V–IX). This keeps the edge zone attractive for much of the season and gives a well-maintained appearance. Thanks to the low growth height of approx. 10 to 20 cm, Veronica beccabunga is particularly suitable for the foreground of bank plantings or as a ‘filler plant’ in the shallow water zone. It can be excellently combined with taller structural plants that may stand behind, while the brooklime in the foreground softly outlines the edge visually.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 layout. For a neat pond edge and easy care, a planting basket is often helpful, especially if you want to reposition the plant later. For growth, a consistently moist location is crucial. 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-growing, uncomplicated plant for damp areas that integrates harmoniously into a natural pond design.Note on shipping: We do our utmost to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite the greatest care, plants may be slightly damaged by postal delivery or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as broken twigs. We do not accept liability for this. Do not plant in open waters such as lakes or biotopes.Zoo-Roco tip: Place brooklime along the shore where you want to fill gaps – it looks especially natural when it ‘grows into’ stones. In very shallow areas (up to –15 cm), a planting basket is practical so that the plant stands stably and you can keep design control easily.
