Default best depth for plants only?

I am planning a separate pond for lilies and marginals only, no fish
other than maybe someting native just to eat the mosquitoes. If they
require more filtering than the plants will provide, then I'll just
use dunks. I don't want to bother with filters or pumps on this one.
How deep is just right? I am lazy, and don't want to dig more than
about two feet. Is that deep enough for some of the larger lilies? I
may put plant shelves in, since I won't have fish to protect.
TIA,
Ann
