Product Information
Myriophyllum Red Stemmed Parrots Feather (not to be confused with the banned plant Myriophyllum Proserpinacoides) has attractive, red-stemmed foliage that grows up out of the water. These pond plants are submerged and part terrestrial (grow on both land and water), are excellent for oxygenating and maintaining clean and healthy water and provide a protected environment for small fish and wildlife. They grow at a water depth of 0-30 cm over the soil.
Aquatic Soil
Aquatic soil is heavy in weight an will therefore increase the cost of postage and packing. Heavy sand or clay based top soil from your back garden will make a fine planting substrate, molehill soil is even better. NEVER use peat based soil or your plants will float up out of your newly planted baskets/planting bags.
Aquatic Top Gravel
Aquatic gravel is heavy in weight and will therefore increase the cost of postage and packing. Top gravel is used as a decorative finish or as an added protection and deterrent to inquisitive/plant destructive koi-carp and other large fish. We only sell 4-6mm grade aquatic gravel as any grade larger will inhibit plant growth. NEVER place large pebbles or stones on top of your Aquatic Planting Baskets
