| There is no limit to the amount of marginal pond plants a pond can have. Wildlife, including your fish, love to hide in the roots and underwater stems of marginals. Flowering marginals can attract butterflies and hummingbirds, so be creative, use your imagination and be sure to plant a few different types of marginals. Our plants are grown in net pots to insure good root development to reduce transplant shock.
