Default Plants for a pond edge

I be interested in any recommendations you might have for putting on the edge of
a pond, especially something that would trail into the pond. I've got the usual
necklace of stones that I want to either hide or get rid of.


I purchased Creeping Primrose as an aquatic plant and it loves to live in
the rocks around my pond. In fact I took the original pot out and left the
runners in the rocks. Has a very pretty yellow flower. Then there is
Kenilworth Ivy, small leaves like ivy, shallow rooted so easy to remove,
tough, has small purple orchid shaped flower. Goldfinches loves the seeds.
