The plant is particularly well suited to shallow banks, where its upright growth ensures clear lines and creates a harmonious transition between water and garden. Thanks to its winter hardiness (zone 2–3), it is suitable for permanently designed pond areas and – in the right location – can remain part of your pond planting for many years.The flowering period from July to September makes the narrow-leaved cattail an attractive companion in the summer and late season. It is especially attractive in group plantings or as a calm background for flowering marsh plants. Thanks to the recommended planting depth of 0 to –40 cm, you can use it flexibly – directly on the edge or in shallow planting baskets in the water.The plant is supplied in an approx. 9 cm pot (basket/ready-grown culture) and with a growth height of approx. 80–120 cm (depending on development stage). For good establishment, it is advisable to place the plant securely after planting and choose the location so that it has enough space to develop.Important note: Please do not plant this plant in open waters such as lakes or biotopes, as aquatic plants can spread depending on the environment. 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.

Cardinal lobelia - Lobelia cardinalisThe cardinal lobelia is an eye-catching colour accent for the garden pond and brings vibrancy to the banks with its red flowers. At a height of 60-80 cm, it is ideal as a structuring plant in the background of low border plantings. It is suitable for planting depths of 0 to -15 cm and is hardy in zones 1-2.Flowering time: V-VIII (May to August)Flower colour: redWinter hardiness: Zone 1 - 2Pot: approx. 18 cmPlant specifications:They create a clear, red eye-catcher at the edge of the pond and visibly enliven the shoreline.Thanks to its planting depth of 0 to -15 cm, the cardinal lobelia is ideal for the edge and shallow water zone.Zone 1-2 makes it suitable for perennial pond design in many regions.Technical data:Botanical name: Lobelia cardinalisGerman name: Cardinal lobeliaPlanting depth: 0 to -15 cmFlowering time: V-VIIIWinter hardiness: Zone 1/2Pot: approx. 18 cmWith Lobelia cardinalis (cardinal lobelia), you are bringing a pond edge plant into your garden that can do one thing above all else: Show its colours. The bright red flowers make it the ideal eye-catcher around the garden pond - especially where many green and yellow tones dominate and a clear accent is desired. Due to its growth height of approx. 60 to 80 cm, it adds structure to the bank planting and is ideal as a background plant, in front of which lower ground cover and shallow water plants come into their own.The specified flowering period from May to August (V-VIII) ensures that your pond edge will look lively for a long time. For a harmonious overall look, we recommend planting in small groups or as a recurring element along the shoreline. This creates a natural, well thought-out design without the pond edge becoming unruly. The cardinal lobelia looks particularly attractive when the flowers are slightly above the waterline - the colour is reflected in the water and enhances the effect.With a recommended planting depth of 0 to -15 cm, Lobelia cardinalis is ideal for the edge and shallow water zone. Depending on the pond structure, place the plant directly in moist bank soil or in a very shallow water area. A plant basket can help to keep the position stable and make it easier to move the plant if necessary - especially if you want to adapt the design seasonally. Thanks to zone 1-2, the cardinal lobelia is suitable for many regions and is an exciting choice if you want to create a permanent pond edge but still want to work with clear colour 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 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: It is best to place Lobelia cardinalis in the shallow water zone so that the roots are evenly moist (0 to -15 cm) - this ensures stable growth. For a particularly attractive look, place the plant where it can be reflected in the water and combine it in the foreground with low ground cover plants at the edge of the pond.

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.

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.

Acorus calamus 'Gramineus' - Colourful calamusThe variegated calamus is an attractive pond edge plant that provides structure and tranquillity around the garden pond with its grass-like growth. It is ideal for the bank and shallow water zone from 0 to -15 cm. At 20-30 cm tall, it remains compact and combines well.Area of application: Pond edge / shallow water zoneHeight: approx. 20-30 cmWinter hardiness: Zone 1-2Pot: approx. 9 cmPlant specifications: Brings clear lines and structure to the edge of the pond without being too dominantCompact and easy to care for - ideal for smaller ponds and edgesSuitable for permanent planting thanks to good winter hardiness (zone 1-2)Technical dataBotanical name: Acorus calamus 'Gramineus'German name: Colourful calamusHeight: 20 / 30 cmDepth: 0 / -15 cmWinter hardiness zone: 1 / 2Planting depth: 0 to -15 cmAcorus calamus 'Gramineus' is a pond edge plant that is particularly characterised by its grassy, tidy growth. The variegated calamus is ideal for visually calming the transition between the water surface and the garden: It looks natural, but remains compact and controllable. This plant is a particularly harmonious choice in places where you want clean lines - for example along pond edges, in shallow bays or in small shoreline areas.The ideal place is in the shore to shallow water zone. The specified planting depth of 0 to -15 cm allows for flexible use: directly on the moist edge or standing slightly in the water. Thanks to its height of approx. 20 to 30 cm, the calamus remains pleasantly low so that it does not obstruct the view of the water surface. At the same time, it provides structure between higher-growing bank plants and lower ground cover plants.The variegated calamus is particularly valuable in pond design because it combines well with many other pond and marsh plants. It is suitable for both naturalistic planting schemes and more modern pond designs that emphasise clear shapes and calm areas. Thanks to its hardiness zone 1-2, it is also suitable for perennial pond edge planting. The plant is supplied in a pot (approx. 10 cm). For easy handling around the pond, we recommend using it in a plant basket - depending on the structure - so that the location remains stable and you can easily move the plant 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 (e.g. brown leaves or broken shoots). We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open waters such as lakes or biotopes.Zoo Roco tip: Place the variegated calamus in the most beautiful spot where you walk past it every day: It looks particularly elegant when planted in small groups and its fine leaves are reflected in the water. For more control, we recommend using a planting basket - this will keep the edges neat and you can easily divide or reposition the plant later.
