The Nardoo is a native species of fern which looks like a four leafed clover. The Nardoo can adjust to any weather conditions and can survive through hot, dry summers. The leaves will float on the surface of the water when it is grown submerged in water. It is also fantastic for floating rings and boggy areas. Nardoo is a good plant for attracting frogs to the environment and provides good breeding habitat.

Pond Plants are always a great addition to any pond. They compete with the algae for nutrients which helps to keep the pond clean. Having multiple plants can be an effective way of filtering the water but you generally need to have half the water surface covered to have a noticeable change. This also depends on certain factors such as type of fish and location of the pond. As well as filtering the water, pond plants help to oxygenate the water during the day.  

Our Pond Plants can come in two main pot sizes, 140mm ($12.95) or 200mm ($20.00) pot. The 140mm pots are generally always in stock but the larger 200mm pots are not always available. Seasonal plants are not generally available during dormancy. Please check for availability
