If the Reservoir is not Big




If the Reservoir is not Big

water garden ferns

If the garden reservoir has not so big sizes, the area of its water surface is insignificant, try to use for landing not specific plants, but grades and garden forms. As a rule, they are not only more interesting, but also much less tall and aggressive, than their natural colleagues. So, for example, Typha latifolia in nature perfectly well fixes the coastal line and clears water, but for a garden pond it is too big, therefore try to use instead of it Typha. minima, Typha angustifolia or Typha gracilis. The iris marsh (Iris pseudacorus) will not suite for every garden pond- it develops very large curtains, and its grades, such as: ‘ Variegata ’, ‘ English Cream ’ and ‘ Kentucky Moonbeam ’ will not only decorate and diversify the water decor, but also will not take too much place.

Perfectly well look near the water all the hygrophilous grasses, and first of all sedges. For landing to insignificant depth will do such plants as ennobled sedge (Carex elata) ‘Aurea’, coastal sedge (Carex. riparia) and its grades, palm sedge (Carex. muskingumensis) and its grades, Carex. Panacea and many other things.

Do not plant too much, keep yourself in hands, because it can turn out so that in a year or two there will remain only memories from your pond. And for normal ability to live of all water community it is absolutely necessary, that not less than 40 % of water surface has to be free from shade- the sunlight should get into thickness of water.
