WHICH PERENNIALS TO PLANT ON THE SHORE OF THE POND
Tell me, what perennials and shrubs can be planted by the pond so that it seems to bloom all summer?
Sergei, Yaroslavl
The choice of such plants is great, but I will focus on the 10 most spectacular.
1. Three types of iris are suitable for the coastal area. Siberian iris is decorative with sharp thin leaves, blooms in June for a short time, but so unique! Marsh iris is ideal for shallow water, but it grows quickly and can even push neighbors. The xiphoid iris also develops optimally on highly moist soils. Blooms approximately after Siberian Iris. All plant species prefer illuminated locations.
2. For large and medium-sized reservoirs, dioecious volzhanka is suitable. It tolerates moderate shade well and is a bright tapeworm. It blooms in the first half of summer with white dense paniculate inflorescences exuding a pleasant honey aroma. And after flowering, it looks decorative due to the openwork leaves.
Z. Boneset adequately decorates the coastal zone in autumn. This unpretentious large plant prefers sunny areas, but can tolerate light shading. After flowering, corymbose inflorescences acquire a silvery-white color.
4. Eye-catching coastal buzul... Undemanding, with voluminous rosettes of leaves, it successfully develops both in shady places and in the sun - with sufficient moisture. B. dentate and B. Przhevalsky are usually grown.
5. Near the pond, the lawn is not entirely appropriate, so you can arrange the banks from ground cover plants. Bright representative loosestrife, or meadow tea... He is able to endure flooding. resistant to mowing and trampling. The reservoir looks great, on the surface of which long hanging loose shoots with small yellow flowers float.
6. Scenic and colorful pinwheel reaches a height of 50-60 cm. A non-capricious perennial feels great everywhere - regardless of lighting. It grows rapidly due to underground stolons.

7. Loved by many swimsuit often found in the middle lane in damp places. This is a spectacular accent plant that opens the season with its flowering while others are just gaining strength.
8. As an alternative to the lawn in the coastal area, you can use sedgesthat resemble cereals in appearance, but withstand wet soil conditions. In the middle lane, you can grow O. tall Aurea, O. Gray, O. conical Snowline and O. paniculate. But for a small pond, choose low sedges.
9. Rogersia... growing, it is able to cover a significant space near the reservoir with wrinkled sheets. It blooms in mid-summer with paniculate inflorescences. It develops best in shaded areas of the coastal zone protected from the wind. The most popular R. is horse-chestnut-leaved.
10. Of course, the top coastal plants include hosts... A wide variety of varieties in terms of color palette and sizes can decorate any, even the smallest pond.

We have a small area on the site. shoy reservoir. Hostas, buzulnik and volzhanka grow nearby. What other perennials can be planted?

- Irises (I. Siberian, I. marsh and I. xiphoid) are perfect for framing the line of the pond. They prefer a well-lit area, so be sure to take this into account when planting. In the autumn, the shore will be decorated with a steed. For lush flowering, he needs fertile soil and good nutrition up to 3 times per season.
- in spring, in June and during the budding period. Another representative of the coastal zone is the monetized loosestrife, capable of withstanding flooding, resistant to mowing and trampling. It grows well on any soil, both in the shade and in the sun. V. punctate. By the way, the lawn near the pond can be replaced with sedge, which in appearance resembles cereals, but withstands wet soil conditions. Able to cover a large area with its wrinkled Rogers leaves. It grows best in shaded coastal areas protected from the wind.

Our site is bordered by a fire pond with an area of 8 acres. When duckweed blooms on it, water is not visible. Swimming in such a pond is impossible: very cold water and silt at the bottom of about a meter. We tried to clean the reservoir with a rake, three years ago we launched a silver carp - it's useless! Help with advice: how to clean the pond from duckweed?
