Pond plants

Found a good source of pond plants. David Kerr of Devon Pond Plants is very helpful and his prices are competitive. Here's what we bought:

Marsh

• Marsh marigold (Caltha palustris) x 1
• Purple loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) x 1
• Ragged robin (Lychnis flos-cuculi) x 3
• Snakeshead (Fritillaria meleagris) x 3

Marginal plants (0-150mm deep)

• Water mint (Mentha aquatica) x 1
• Water plantain (Alisma plantago-aquatica) x 1
• Brooklime (Veronica beccabunga) x 1
• Water forget-me-not (Myosotis scorpioides) x 1
• Lesser spearwort (Ranunculus flammula) x 1

Emergent (deeper water)

• Bog bean (Menyanthes trifoliata) x 1
• Flowering rush (Butomus umbellatus) x 3

Floating leaved and bottom rooted

• Amphibious bistort (Polygonum amphibium) x 1
• Fringed waterlily (Nymphoides peltata) x 1
• Water crowfoot (Ranunculus aquatilis) x 6

Oxygenators

• Hornwort (Ceratophyllum demersum) x 6
• Water starwort (Callitriche Spp) x 3

This is in addition to some native flag iris (Iris Pseudoacorus) and mystery pond weed I brought back from my mum's two weeks ago.

The Snakeshead Fritillary, complete with flowers, came through the post in perfect condition!
