Request from pond owners
Hi
I have a barrel pond about 3' deep by 3' diameter with one dwarf water lily and a small water hawthorn plant in it. Unfortunately the water seems to be going stagnant and after detecting a faint hydrogen sulphide type aroma from it this morning I have removed several bucketfuls of water from it and replaced it with tap water. I don't think this is a good longterm solution as it changes the water chemistry but obviously I don't want a stagnant pond! I can't put a fountain in it as the water lily needs still water. Does any kind soul out there have any floating oxygenators in their pond which they are going to prune/cut back and if so maybe could they put some in a plastic bag and send me some? I'd be happy to send a freezer bag in an sae I've looked online but the postage charges are either ridiculous for a small plant or you have to spend £10 plus. I don't know of any shops locally which sell such things either. All I want is a small amount of oxygenating plant to bung in which isn't too invasive and will perhaps float lower down in the water so as not to swamp the current occupants. If anyone can help please email me! Thanks. -- Lynda Thornton |
