NaturaGart Underwater Plants
Oxygen + Less Algae
As opposed to water lilies, their leaves remain under water. Because you can hardly see milfoil and others, many think that they are unimportant. Wrong! You pond cannot be without them! Underwater plants are of strategic importance for your pond.
In the beginning there is always an over-supply of nutrients. That necessarily leads to proliferation of algae. The normal starter plants in the assortments are sufficient in the long term, but they cannot prevent initial instabilities. |
Instead of chemical products:
With an extra portion of underwater plants your pond will find its biological equilibrium naturally. The underwater plants can continuously absorb nutrients and deplete the water from nutrients in such way that algae have can hardly grow.
The greater the number of underwater plants that are in the pond, the less of a problem with algae will exists. The assortments contain different species of plants depending on the season: Among others hornwort, milfoil, water crowfoot, featherfoil, waterweed, pondweed, etc. Use 1 portion per 1m² of planting area. |
You can order underwater plant assortments for the following pond sizes:
For 10, 20, 40, 60, 100, 150 and 200m²
