Shade loving marginal plants?
Marginal plants start underwater and then most of their growth is above water.
Cattails for instance. k30a and the watergardening labradors http://www.geocities.com/watergarden...ors/index.html |

Shade loving marginal plants?
Thank you very much John and K30A for the replies and a very long list
of plants. Your help is very much appreciated. I'll admit that I'm not much of a gardener. That's my wife's passion. Since I'm a newbie to ponding, it's quite possible that I'm confused with the definition of "marginal plants". I thought "marginal plants" were plants that sat in pots, with the tops of the pots below the water level (usually sitting in the pond, on a shelf). Is this right, or did I miss something? The reason I'm asking this is because I didn't think hostas or lily of the valley would survive if used in this fashion. Again, I might be totally wrong. We have many hostas and a good supply of lily of the valley, but before I try to use them this way, I'd like verification that they have a good chance of surviving. The pond is not ready for a liner yet. Just trying to do a little homework before hand. Once again, thanks for taking the time to reply. Ed (zone 5, Indiana) |

Thanks for the clarification, and for the addition to the list. It's
likely that I'll be picking your brains with something else before too long. Ed (zone 5, Indiana) |
