Thanks Jenny. I really want something to go in the pond and ideally a native to attract wildlife. I quite fancy Bogbean or Watermint but I've been warned off both as they are quite invasive. There must be some little native plant that would fit the bill?G x
The hoverflies loved my watercress last year. I am growing more this year too, though I wouldn't fancy eating it from the pond. Grows very fast and can take over, you only need a little bit, good for hiding in say the frogs and taddies!! ;D ;D
Right, I've got some organic Watercress which is rooting nicely in a tumbler. Will it need hardening off or can I put it straight in the pond?G x
Watercress ok for fish ???
I'd be a lot happier if it was under water. Can you repot it? Even if it means a lot less soil for it I'd be tempted to. Or leave it as it is and keep a close eye on it. It might trail under OK anyway. I just looked at the rest of the thread. One native plant I like is flowering rush - butomus umbellatus. It's really pretty and non-invasive. Not longlived flowers though.
