Marginal Plants

Marginal Plants

 

Every pool should have a selection of marginal plants to provide beauty and colour and to assist in the balance of the pool.

From the showy Caltha Palustris Flore Plena to the magnificent Typha Latifola Variegata, there is a vast selection to suit every situation. Plant size is equivalent to a 1 litre pot, knocked out and root washed.
