Product information "Yellow marsh iris (9cm) - Iris pseudacorus"

Yellow marsh iris for the garden pond - Iris pseudacorus

The yellow marsh iris is a classic waterside plant that gives pond edges an upright and natural structure. With a height of 60-80 cm, it is ideal for the edge and shallow water zone and provides seasonal accents during the flowering period from May to July (V-VII). It is hardy in zones 1-3 and therefore suitable for many locations.

Flowering time: V-VII (May to July)
Flower colour: yellow
Winter hardiness: Zone 1, 2 and 3
Pot: approx. 9 cm

Plant specifications:

You create a natural-looking pond edge and give the bank zone a clear structure with the upright growth.
The planting depth of 0 to -40 cm allows flexible placement from the wet edge to the shallow water area.
Thanks to its hardiness zone 1-3, the marsh iris is suitable for perennial, low-maintenance pond plants.

Technical data:

Botanical name: Iris pseudacorus
German name: Yellow marsh iris
Planting depth: 0 to -40 cm
Flowering time: V-VII (May to July)
Winter hardiness: Zone 1/2/3
Pot: approx. 9 cm

With Iris pseudacorus (yellow marsh iris), you are choosing a tried-and-tested plant for a permanently attractive pond edge and bank design. With its sword-shaped leaves, it brings a clear, vertical structure to the garden pond and helps to make the transition between the water surface and the garden bed appear more natural. It is particularly popular in near-natural pond systems because it visually "grips" the edge area while leaving enough lightness for a harmonious overall appearance.

The marsh iris reaches a height of approx. 60 to 80 cm and is therefore ideal for the centre to background of the bank planting. In combination with lower marginal plants, it creates a harmonious structure that does not overgrow the pond but clearly organises it. The flowering period from May to July (V-VII) brings seasonal highlights to the edge of the pond. The plant looks best when planted in small groups or as a recurring element along the shoreline, creating a calm, well-organised design. A major advantage is the flexible planting depth of 0 to -40 cm. This means you can either plant Iris pseudacorus directly in moist bank soil or in the shallow water area - depending on the structure of your pond and the effect you want to achieve.

For neat, controllable planting, planting in a plant basket is often recommended, especially if you want to adjust the position later. Thanks to its hardiness zone 1-3, the yellow marsh iris is suitable for many regions and is a solid choice for long-term pond planting.

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 plant Iris pseudacorus at a depth of 0 to -40 cm so that the plant does not stand in the middle of the pond but emphasises the edge - this is where it looks most natural. If you want a very neat pond edge, use a plant basket so that the plant stays exactly where you want it.

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.

Around ponds, plants are required that are not only attractive during short blooming periods but structure the border zone throughout the whole season. This is exactly where ‘Picta’ comes into its own: The light, colourful-looking foliage brings freshness to the bank zone and forms a beautiful contrast to darker green plants, stones or the water surface.With a height of approx. 60 to 80 cm, ribbon grass is suitable for the middle to background area of pond edge planting. It “frames” the bank line without completely taking away the view into the water, and brings a calm, tidy effect. Phalaris ‘Picta’ appears particularly harmonious when planted in small groups or placed as a recurring element along a pond edge. This creates a natural rhythm that embeds the pond harmoniously.The recommended planting depth of 0 to –15 cm makes the plant ideal for the damp bank zone and very shallow areas. Plant it directly in damp marginal soil or place it in the shallow-water border area – depending on the pond layout. Delivered in a 9-cm pot, ribbon grass can easily be integrated into planting plans, especially if you want to plant several specimens for an even edge effect. For a particularly neat pond edge, a plant basket can be useful to ensure the plant stays stable and so you can simply adjust its position as required.With winter hardiness zone 1, Phalaris ‘Picta’ is suitable for perennial pond installations and is a good choice if you want to combine structure with a bright foliage effect at your garden pond.Note on shipping: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite the utmost care, it is possible that plants may be slightly damaged by postal delivery or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as bent stems. No liability is accepted for this. Do not plant in open waters such as lakes or biotopes. Zoo-Roco tip: Use Phalaris ‘Picta’ to visually brighten dark corners at the pond edge – for example, next to stones or in front of evergreen plants. If you wish to keep a clear shape, plant the ribbon grass in a plant basket (0 to –15 cm) and cut it back to ground level in spring so that it sends up fresh shoots again.

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. Despite the utmost care, plants may be slightly damaged during shipping or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as snapped branches. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant into open water such as lakes or biotopes.Zoo-Roco tip: Plant Cyperus alternifolius so that the “umbrellas” are clearly visible at eye level – it looks best when slightly reflected in the water. 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.

Water iris (9 cm) – Iris versicolor

Iris versicolor – Water iris for pond edge & bankIris versicolor is an elegant marginal plant whose upright growth clearly structures the pond edge. With a height of 60–80 cm, it is ideal for the edge and shallow water zone and flowers from May to July (V–VII). It can be planted at a depth of 0 to –15 cm and is hardy in zone 1–2.Flowering period: V–VII (May to July)Height: approx. 60–80 cmPlanting depth: 0 to –15 cmPot size: approx. 9cmSpecifications for the plant:They give your garden pond a neat, natural frame and bring height to the bankside planting.The flowering period V–VII provides an attractive seasonal highlight by the water in early to late summer.Thanks to planting depth 0 to –15 cm, the water iris can be placed flexibly in damp edge areas and very shallow zones.Technical data:Botanical name: Iris versicolorGerman name: Water irisHeight (cm): 60 / 80 cmPlanting depth: 0 / –15 cmFlowering period: V–VIIWinter hardiness: Zone 1 / 2Pot size: 9 cmWith Iris versicolor (Water iris / Water Iris), you are choosing a classic marginal plant for your garden pond that combines structure and naturalness. Especially at pond edges, an iris with its upright, sword-shaped leaves ensures clear lines: it frames the pond, segments the marginal zone, and makes the transition between water surface and garden visually harmonious.Thanks to the growth height of approx. 60 to 80 cm , Iris versicolor is particularly suitable for the mid- to background of pond edge planting, behind lower ground covers or flat-growing marginal plants. The flowering period from May to July (V–VII) brings the desired seasonal highlight to the pond. This means that in early summer, the marginal area is not only green but also gains a flowering accent that unfolds particularly beautifully by the water. For a harmonious overall appearance, planting in small groups or as a recurring element along the bank is recommended. This creates a calm rhythm that makes the pond appear seamless.The recommended planting depth of 0 to –15 cm makes Iris versicolor ideal for damp marginal zones and very shallow areas. Depending on pond construction, place the plant in damp bank earth or position it firmly in the shallow water area. The 9-cm pot is practical if you want to use several plants for a uniform marginal effect. For a neat, manageable pond edge, a planting basket is often a good solution – this keeps the water iris where it works best and allows for easy relocation if necessary. Thanks to zone 1–2, Iris versicolor is winter-hardy and thus well suited to perennial pond schemes. A solid choice if you wish to establish a long-lasting, beautiful marginal area with clear structure and seasonal flowering at your garden pond.Note on shipping: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite the utmost care, minimal damage may occur to plants in the post or through other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as bent shoots. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open water such as lakes or biotopes.Zoo-Roco tip: Plant Iris versicolor so that the plant is visible from your main vantage point – it looks best when the leaves ‘trace’ the edge and the growth is reflected slightly in the water. If you wish to test the location, start at 0 to –5 cm and lower the plant further to –15 cm if necessary.

Unlike traditional aquatic plants, it does not belong in the water, but thrives particularly well at the pond’s edge in moist, humus-rich soil. Precisely where the soil receives regular moisture but is not permanently flooded, it can establish itself well and enhance the visual transition between the bank and the garden.A semi-shaded spot is ideal, for example at the edge of a copse near a pond or in a waterside planting scheme with perennials and ferns. Ensure the soil is well-drained and free from waterlogging. During dry spells, regular watering helps to ensure the plant remains evenly supplied with moisture. If Bketilla is grown in a pot, good drainage is essential; in winter, a sheltered spot may be advisable.Note on shipping: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive at your address healthy and undamaged.

A small distance from the water’s edge prevents the roots from being permanently waterlogged – this is the most common reason why perennials planted near a pond fail to thrive.

Dwarf water lily – Nymphaea Pygmaea Alba (18cm)

Nymphaea pygmaea ‘Alba’ – dwarf water lily white-yellowThe dwarf water lily Nymphaea pygmaea ‘Alba’, with its white-yellow flowers, adds a calm, elegant touch to the water’s surface. Its compact growth habit makes it particularly suitable for smaller garden ponds or basins where a classic water lily would be too vigorous. Ideal if you want a delicate floral effect without the pond looking ‘overgrown’.Dwarf water lily – suitable for smaller pondsFlower colour: white-yellowGrowth: compact, with a modest foliage and flower displaySuitable for: garden pond, mini-pond, pots/basins (depending on setup)Technical dataBotanical name: Nymphaea pygmaea ‘Alba’Common name: dwarf water lilyFlower colour: white-yellowPlanting depth: between -10 and -40cmFlowering period: from June to September\nPot size: approx. 18 cmWith the dwarf water lily Nymphaea pygmaea ‘Alba’, you can create particularly stylish water features – even if your garden pond is rather small or you wish to plant in a mini-pond . Dwarf water lilies are made to create the typical water lily effect in a limited space: the leaves float on the surface, whilst the delicate water lilies appear.The ‘Alba’ variety impresses with a white-yellow flower colour, which has a very calming effect and can be easily combined with various pond and marginal plants.\n\nPlant selection is especially critical in small ponds: overly vigorous water lilies can quickly dominate the surface. The dwarf water lily stays comparatively more compact and is therefore very well suited if you wish to keep the water surface deliberately open. At the same time, water lilies create a pleasant pond atmosphere: the flowers draw the eye to the water, and the floating leaves give the pond a natural ‘centre’.\n\nFor good establishment, stable placement is important – ideally in a planting basket or a suitable container, so that the substrate and rhizome are secure and you can adjust the position if necessary.If you are looking for a subtle, high-quality flowering effect and would like to opt for a compact water lily, Nymphaea pygmaea ‘Alba’ is a suitable choice for a neat, natural-looking pond design.

Despite the greatest care, plants may occasionally be slightly damaged during postal delivery or due to other unforeseen circumstances. This includes brown leaves as well as snapped stems. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open waters such as lakes or biotopes.Zoo-Roco tip: With dwarf water lilies, it is worth placing the plant a little higher to start with and then lowering it later if necessary – this usually helps it to grow more quickly. If you are planting in a pot/mini-pond, ensure that the water lily gets enough sun and is not shaded by marginal plants.
