UNDERWATER OXYGENATOR PLANTS: Underwater grasses are the staple of the backyard pond. The most common is Anacharis.
These plants grow completely submerged (although the growth of most will end up reaching the surface). We place these in pots of pea gravel to hold them in place. This keeps them anchored and keeps the pond looking neater.
These plants are an excellent way to remove nutrients from the water.
Silvery green heads float on the water’s surface. Great for biofilters. Float the entire bunch or pot it in a small pot and place it on the shelf..
