Quite Simply Put - "These prices are impossible
to beat with free shipping!"
READ PLEASE! These are all hardy sample
assortment packages, good for any part of the country. However, plants grow differently depending on
where you live. Let's take 3 cities, Miami, Louisville and Boston. If you took any one of these
packages and put them in each of the 3 cities, each plant would have different development patterns.
Take the Arrowhead package for example. In Miami the Silk Stockings Arrowhead may grow like crazy
and in Boston it may be a runt. In New York you may find that the flowering bog plants are all good
except the lizard's tail. (not to say that is true because I don't know) Once you get a handle on
what your strong plants are then you can start propagating large areas of them so your pond looks
lush. One of the biggest mistakes we see is that someone will buy 1 plant and put it in their pond
expecting it to magically spread like wildfire. This is never going to happen with plants contained
in pots and that is why on our regular plants we sell them in sets of 3 or 6 plants most often. Do
you have a pond with 1 plant sticking out of a 5 square foot area looking like a sore thumb? Does
your pond look anemic? It is ironic that people will spend a few thousand dollars on building a
pond, but then only buy just a plant or 2 to try and save a buck. Finish your pond off with gobs of
plants! Plant it up, make it lush and green. Don't set just 1 pot down with 1 start in it. Set down
4 or 5 pots with at least 3 plants in each pot so your garden looks like the Amazon rain forest.
Sure we make more money if you buy more plants. But that is not why I am suggesting this plan of
action. I am suggesting it because it is true and you know it is. We strongly suggest you buy a
sample set and do a test planting. Then you will know for future reference what your strong plants
are and can plant those species heavily for a watergarden that looks like the ones you see in
magazines. Another good option if you want to go from barren to lush is to get one of our
complete garden packages. You can save a lot of money by
doing this and have a super looking pond.

* Restricted Pond Plants: Some states have restrictions or bans on pond plants. Contact your local government for a list of restricted plants. The buyer needs to be aware of any regulations on plants that may be restricted.
** Pond Plants grow differently depending on where you live: If you took pond plants of the same species and planted them in different climates each plant would grow differently. This is Mother Nature at work. We guarantee all of our plants will arrive alive and healthy. We cannot guarantee that your specific location will support long term growth. Over time and experience you will find which pond plants thrive in your USDA Zone
*** We reserve the right to substitute with like plants of equal or greater value unless you specifically request otherwise in the remarks section of your order you submit. This happens almost never though, and if it does happen it is usually in regard to floating and submerged oxygenation plants.
