Cotton grass (18 cm) – Eriophorum angustifolium
Eriophorum angustifolium – Cotton grass for pond edgesEriophorum angustifolium (cotton grass) brings a light, natural touch to the garden pond with its white flowers from April to June (IV–VI). With a height of 30–40 cm it is ideal for shore and shallow water zones. The recommended planting depth is 0 to –15 cm; the plant is hardy in zone 1–2.Flower colour: whiteFlowering period: IV–VI (April to June)Height: approx. 30–40 cmPot size: approx. 18 cmPlant specifications: You can design the pond edge to look particularly natural and add an airy, “meadow-like” structure to the shore zone.The flowering period IV–VI ensures bright highlights in spring, which look particularly attractive at the water’s edge.Thanks to zone 1–2, cotton grass is suitable for perennial, easy-care pond planting.Technical data:Botanical name: Eriophorum angustifoliumCommon name: Cotton grassHeight (cm): 30 / 40 cmPlanting depth: 0 / –15 cmWinter hardiness zone: Zone 1 / 2Pot size: 18 cmWith Eriophorum angustifolium (cotton grass / cottongrass), you are choosing a plant for your garden pond that creates a particularly natural, light effect. Cotton grass is ideally suited to pond landscapes which are designed to look more natural, or where a soft shoreline is deliberately retained. With its grass-like habit, it adds structure to the edge zone without appearing heavy or dominant – ideal if you wish to keep the water area visually open. The white flowers appear from April to June (IV–VI) and add bright highlights early in the year. Especially by the water, this blossom is particularly attractive because, with a calm surface, it is beautifully reflected and brightens up the shore zone.With a height of approximately 30 to 40 cm cotton grass is perfect for the foreground to midground: it pairs well with lower ground covers and is also harmonious next to taller bank plants which can be placed in the background. The recommended planting depth of 0 to –15 cm makes Eriophorum angustifolium ideal for the shore and shallow-water edge zone. Place the plant in damp bank soil or put it in a very shallow water section.Supplied in an 18-cm pot, you receive a good starting volume that makes establishment easier and makes the plant more stable. If you prefer a defined pond edge or wish to keep the position flexible later, a planting basket is a practical solution – this means the plant remains exactly where it shows to best effect. Thanks to winter hardiness zone 1–2 cotton grass is suitable for many regions and is an easy-going choice for perennial pond edge planting. It is particularly attractive if several plants are set slightly offset from one another – this creates a natural shore effect that visually frames the pond harmoniously.Note on shipping: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite all due care, it can happen that plants are slightly damaged by postal transit or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves just as much as bent stems. We do not accept liability for this. Do not plant in open water such as lakes or biotopes. Zoo-Roco tip: Cotton grass looks best when you place it in small groups in the edge zone (0 to –15 cm) and combine it with calmer green plants. If your water level varies, first set the pot a little higher and lower it gradually after establishment – this usually ensures the plant settles more reliably.

Valerian (9 cm) – Valeriana officinalis
Valeriana officinalis – Valerian for pond edge & shoreline zoneValeriana officinalis (valerian) is a stately, natural-looking perennial for moist areas around the garden pond. With a height of 60–100 cm, it adds structure to the shoreline 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. 9 cmPlant specifications:You receive a robust shoreline perennial that naturally enhances the pond edge and brings height to the planting.Due to the long flowering period V–VIII, the shoreline zone remains attractive for months and looks well-maintained.Thanks to the planting depth of 0 to –15 cm, valerian can be flexibly placed in moist boundary areas and very shallow zones.Technical data:Botanical name: Valeriana officinalisCommon 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 choose at the garden pond a shoreline perennial that appears especially natural and gives the border planting noticeably more height and depth. Especially with ponds, a “flat” impression can quickly arise if only low plants are present in the border area. 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.

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.

The leaves are arranged like umbrellas and visually resemble small palm fronds – creating a clear, yet still natural, shape, instantly enhancing pond edges. Especially where there are many soft-growing plants around the pond, this sedge provides a calm counterpoint and brings order to the overall picture.With a height of approx. 60 to 80 cm, Carex muskingumensis is ideal for the middle to background of the shoreline planting. It can visually “frame” pond edges without completely covering the water surface. It is particularly harmonious in small groups or as a recurring element along the bank – this creates a natural rhythm that makes the pond look as if it were all of a piece. The flowering period from June to August (VI–VIII) complements the seasonal cycle; for this plant, however, the attractive leaf structure is usually the main focus.The recommended planting depth of 0 to –15 cm makes the palm-leaf sedge suitable for the shore and shallow water zone.

Despite the greatest care, plants may be slightly damaged during postal shipping or other unforeseen events. These include 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 the palm-leaf sedge so that from your main viewing axis it “frames the pond” – for example, on the left and right of a seating area view of the water. At a depth of 0 to –15 cm it looks especially natural, and in a planting basket its shape stays neat and can be corrected at any time.

Marsh cranesbill (9 cm) – Geranium palustre
Geranium palustre – Marsh cranesbill for the pond edgeGeranium palustre is a robust perennial for damp pond edges and the shallow water margin. Reaching 30–40 cm in height, it remains compact and is ideal for the foreground along the shoreline. The flowering period is from June to August (VI–VIII), it is suitable for planting depths from 0 to –15 cm and is hardy in zones 1–2.Flowering period: VI–VIII (June to August)Height: approx. 30–40 cmPlanting depth: 0 to –15 cmPot size: approx. 9cmProduct specifications:They naturally green the pond edge and create a gentle transition between water and garden.The flowering period VI–VIII provides a vibrant highlight in the bank area during the peak season.Thanks to the planting depth 0 to –15 cm, you can place the plant flexibly at the damp edge or in very shallow water.Technical specifications:Botanical name: Geranium palustre (often also listed as Geranium palustris)Common name: Marsh cranesbillHeight (cm): 30 / 40 cmPlanting depth: 0 / –15 cmFlowering period: VI–VIIIWinter hardiness: Zone 1 / 2Pot size: 9 cmWith Geranium palustre (marsh cranesbill) you are choosing a perennial that is particularly well suited for damp locations around the garden pond. Zones often develop at the edge of the pond that remain consistently fresh to damp – and this is exactly where marsh cranesbill achieves a natural, calming effect. It closes gaps, visually connects different planting areas and makes the transition between water and garden appear softer.With a height of approx. 30 to 40 cm, the plant remains pleasantly compact. This makes it ideal for the foreground of riverside planting, along stones, edges or stepping stones. Geranium palustre is especially harmonious in small groups: this creates a broad, “natural” look that does not crowd the pond edge and leaves the water surface visible. The flowering period from June to August (VI–VIII) is during the peak season – perfect for keeping the marginal zone looking lively and well-kept in summer. The suggested planting depth of 0 to –15 cm allows for flexible placement. Depending on the pond structure, you can plant the marsh cranesbill directly in moist bank soil or place it right at the very shallow edge. The 9-cm pot is especially suitable if you want to plant several at once, so as to quickly achieve a uniform marginal effect. For a controlled, neat pond edge, a planting basket can be helpful – this means the plant stays where it looks best, and you can easily move it if needed.Thanks to zone 1–2, Geranium palustre is winter-hardy and is therefore a good choice for perennial pond schemes. If you are looking for a low-maintenance, compact perennial for the pond edge that combines well and adds extra vibrancy in summer, this marsh cranesbill makes a suitable addition. Note on shipping: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite the utmost care, plants may suffer minor damage in the post or due to other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as broken stems. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open water such as lakes or biotopes.Zoo-Roco tip: Plant Geranium palustre at the pond edge as a “link plant” between taller riverside perennials and low groundcovers. At a depth of 0 to –15 cm (or in damp bank soil) it establishes particularly harmoniously – and in small groups, the edge immediately appears more natural.

It is precisely this clear shape that makes it so popular: it brings structure to the bank planting, appears neat and sets an exciting contrast to softly growing marsh and flowering plants. Especially at modern ponds or clearly defined shorelines, Cyprus grass looks very harmonious – but it can also be a deliberate structural point in near-natural settings.With a height of approx. 60 to 80 cm, Cyperus alternifolius is suitable for the mid- to background of the bank planting. It visually builds up the bank zone without completely obscuring the pond. The stated flowering period from May to July (V–VII) complements the seasonal progression, although with this plant it is usually the leaf and growth form that are the main focus. Planted in small groups, a calm, architectural effect is created; planted singly, Cyprus grass becomes a clear eye-catcher. The recommended planting depth of 0 to –15 cm makes the plant ideal for the bank and shallow water zone. You can plant it directly in moist bank soil or place it in the very shallow water area.Note on shipping: We do our utmost to ensure that our plants arrive with you healthy and undamaged. Despite our best efforts, it can happen that plants are slightly damaged by postal shipping 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 Cyperus alternifolius so that the “umbrellas” are clearly visible at eye level – it is most attractive when slightly reflected in the water. For a neat pond edge, place the pot or basket at a depth of 0 to –15 cm and combine a low ground cover in front to make the transition look natural.

Especially in riparian zones, there are often sites that remain permanently fresh to moist – this is exactly where Geum rivale feels at home and helps to create a harmonious transition between water and garden. It does not look ‘technical’ or artificial, but blends in very naturally with mixed edge plantings.With a height of approx. 30 to 40 cm, water avens is ideal for the foreground to midground. It adds structure to the margins without blocking the view of the water. With a flowering period from April to June (IV–VI), it is especially valuable for the start of the season: While many pond plants only really develop later, Geum rivale provides vitality to the pond edge as early as spring. This means that the edge zone looks well cared for and inviting from the outset. In design, Geum rivale is versatile: as a small group along the water's edge, as a companion among grasses and low ground covers, or as a connecting element between the pond edge and the adjacent bed. The 9-cm pot is ideal if you want to plant several specimens to quickly create a harmonious, natural look. Thanks to hardiness zone 1, Geum rivale is robust and suitable for perennial plantings. If you want to design your garden pond in a natural way and value an early flowering period, this perennial is a suitable addition for a beautiful long-term edge zone.Note on shipping: We do our very best to ensure our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite our best care, it may happen that plants are slightly damaged by postal delivery or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as bent branches.

It is exactly this clear form that makes it so popular: it brings structure to the shore planting, appears tidy and creates an exciting contrast to soft-growing marsh and flowering plants. The Cyprus grass appears especially harmonious at modern ponds or clearly defined shorelines – but it can also impress as a deliberate structural focal point in natural-style designs.With a height of approx. 60 to 80 cm, Cyperus alternifolius is suitable for the middle to background of edge plantings. It visually builds up the shore zone without completely covering the pond. The indicated flowering period from May to July (V–VII) complements the seasonal progression, in this plant the focus is usually on the foliage and shape. When planted in small groups it creates a calm, architectural effect; planted individually, the Cyprus grass becomes a real eye-catcher. The recommended planting depth of 0 to –15 cm makes the plant ideal for the shore and shallow water area. You can plant it directly in moist bank soil or place it in the very shallow water zone.Supplied in a 18 cm pot, you receive a strong root volume, which makes it easier to establish and ensures greater stability. For a neat pond edge and maximum control, a planting basket is a practical option – this way, the plant stays where it works best and can easily be moved if required.Note on shipping: We make every effort to ensure our plants arrive healthy and undamaged.

For a neat pond edge, place the pot or basket at 0 to –15 cm depth and use a low ground cover at the front so the transition appears natural.
