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.
Carex muskingumensis
– Palm-leaf sedge for pond edgesCarex muskingumensis is a decorative ornamental grass for damp locations and the edge of the garden pond, known for its umbrella-like arrangement of leaves. With a height of 60–80 cm, it brings calm structure to the shore and shallow water zones. It is suitable for a planting depth of 0 to –15 cm; flowering period: June to August (VI–VIII).Flowering period: VI–VIII (June to August)Height: approx. 60–80 cmPlanting depth: 0 to –15 cmPot size: approx. 9 cmPlant specifications: They provide a calm, natural structure at the pond edge – ideal as a "frame" for flowering bank plants.With a planting depth of 0 to –15 cm, the palm-leaf sedge can be flexibly placed in shore and shallow water zones.Technical data:Botanical name: Carex muskingumensisEnglish name: Palm-leaf sedgeHeight (cm): 60 / 80 cmPlanting depth: 0 / –15 cmFlowering period: VI–VIIIWinter hardiness: Zone 1 / 2Pot size: 9 cmWith Carex muskingumensis (Palm-leaf sedge / Umbrella Flat Sedge), you are choosing a structural grass that looks particularly elegant at the edge of the garden pond. The leaves are arranged like umbrellas and visually resemble small palm fronds – this creates a clear, yet still natural form that immediately enhances pond edges. Especially when there are many soft-growing plants around the pond, this sedge creates a calm counterpart and brings order to the overall look.With a height of approx. 60 to 80 cm, Carex muskingumensis is ideal for middle to background planting on the bank. It can visually "frame" the pond edges without completely obscuring the water surface. It is especially effective in small groups or as a recurring element along the shore – this creates a natural rhythm that makes the pond appear as if cast from one mould. The flowering period from June to August (VI–VIII) complements the season; with this plant, though, the main focus is usually on the attractive leaf structure.The recommended planting depth of 0 to –15 cm makes the palm-leaf sedge suitable for the shore and shallow water zones. Plant it in moist bank soil or place it in very shallow water – depending on how your pond is designed.Thanks to Zone 1–2, Carex muskingumensis is suitable for perennial pond installations in many regions and is an easy-care choice if you want to combine structure, height, and a natural appearance.Note on shipping: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite our greatest care, plants may be slightly damaged during postal delivery or due to other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as bent branches. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open water such as lakes or biotopes.
Zoo-Roco tip:
Plant the palm-leaf sedge so that it "frames the pond" from your main viewing axis – for example, to the left and right of a seating area overlooking the water. At a depth of 0 to –15 cm it appears particularly natural, and in a plant basket its shape remains neat and can be corrected at any time.
Carex panacea
– sedge for pond edges & shallow waterCarex panacea is a hardy sedge for damp banks and the shallow water edge zone of garden ponds. With a height of 60–80 cm, it brings a calm, natural structure to the planting scheme. The flowering period is from June to July (VI–VII), it is suitable for a planting depth of 0 to –15 cm and is hardy in zone 1–2.Flowering period: VI–VII (June to July)Height: approx. 60–80 cmPlanting depth: 0 to –15 cmPot size: approx. 9cmProduct specifications:They provide a stable, natural-looking structure at the pond edge and visually "frame" the shoreline neatly.Thanks to a planting depth of 0 to –15 cm, the sedge can be flexibly positioned on the damp edge or in very shallow water.With zone 1–2, Carex panacea is suitable for perennial, low-maintenance pond planting.Technical data:Botanical name: Carex panaceaCommon name: sedge Height (cm): 60 / 80 cmPlanting depth: 0 / –15 cmFlowering period: VI–VIIWinter hardiness zone: Zone 1 / 2Pot size: 9 cmWith Carex panacea, you choose a reliable structural grass for the garden pond, which permanently organises the bank zone and visually embeds the pond. Especially at pond edges, it is helpful to use plants that not only flower in specific spots, but also create a calm, natural line with their growth habit. Sedges are particularly well suited for this: they look neat, can be combined in various ways and add stability to the edge planting.With a height of approx. 60 to 80 cm, Carex panacea fits ideally into the middle to background of the pondside planting. It can serve as a green frame that structures the pond edge, while lower groundcovers 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 season, even if with sedges the focus is usually on foliage and structure.The recommended planting depth of 0 to –15 cm makes the plant flexible in use: directly in damp bank soil or in very shallow water. Depending on the pond layout, 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 plant several plants to quickly achieve an even, natural bank line. 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 winter hardy and therefore well suited for perennial pond schemes. A good choice if you are looking for a calm, low-maintenance structural plant for the garden pond, one that blends harmoniously into natural-looking bank designs.Note on shipping: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged at your address. Despite utmost care, it is possible for plants to be slightly damaged during postal delivery or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves just as much as bent branches. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open water such as lakes or biotopes. Zoo-Roco tip:
Plant sedges at the pond edge in small groups, slightly staggered, rather than in a straight line – this makes the shoreline appear more natural. If you want to keep the edge very neat, place Carex panacea in a planting basket at a depth of 0 to –15 cm and combine a low ground cover at the front for a soft finish.

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.

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.
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.
