Aquatic Plants

Bog, Marginal & Submerged 9oxygenating) plants all available on requestor seasonally. Please call or email to enquire stock levels.

Bog

Best suited to damp, generally semi-shaded areas. In most cases they cannot tolerate drying out however it depends on the specific variety. They can though cope with the odd case of flooding so temporary saturation is tolerable.

Marginal

This range of plants is not far off the bog range. The difference is the sitting continually in water where some of the bog range may not cope with constant water contact. This aside there are many types which will cross over into the bog.

Submerged (oxygenating) water plants

Will grow permanently under water with the majority of the foliage submersed. Many plants however will have leaves and in some cases flowers that will float on the surface.
