Deep Water Plants

  • Deep water plants do not require repotting, there is no need to remove the finofil mesh basket.

Water Lillies

  • Pygmae Lily & Snow Princess - do not require repotting, leave in the finofil mesh basket.
  • 1 litre lilies require repotting into a 3 litre or larger mesh basket.
  • All other size lilies do not require repotting, they can be left in the finofil mesh basket.
  • Small lilies will benefit of repotting into a larger mesh basket.

Marginal Plants

  • 9cm marginal plants require repotting into a mesh basket, unless being put straight into the subsoil around the edges of the pond, as suggested by Joel in his YouTube videos.  If you do decide to repot into a mesh basket though, place in a pond no deeper than 1/3 maximum recommended planting depth to allow the plants to establish.
  • 1 litre marginal plants do not require repotting, there is no need to remove the finofil mesh basket.  Place in a pond no deeper than 1/2 maximum recommended planting depth to allow the plants to establish.  Plants over 60cm height growth will benefit from repotting into a larger mesh basket or should be planted in gravel or the subsoil margins to prevent them from falling over.
  • 3 litre and 5 litre plants do not require repotting, there is no need to remove the mesh basket.  Place on the shelf of the pond at the required depth.

Moisture Lover Plants

  • Remove the plant from the pot and plant in damp ground, in a hole deep enough to accommodate the root ball.

Oxygenating Bunches

  • 9cm oxygenating plants require repotting into a mesh basket, unless as above you are planting straight into the subsoil.  If repotting in a mesh basket, place in a pond no deeper than 1/3 maximum recommended planting depth to allow plants to establish.
  • 1 litre oxygenating plants do not require repotting, there is no need to remove the mesh basket.  Place in pond no deeper than 1/2 recommended planting depth to allow the plants to establish.
  • 2 litre oxygenating plants do not require repotting, there is no need to remove the mesh basket. Place on the shelf of the pond at the required depth.
  • We suggest planting 2-3 bunches per 1sqm.

Floating Plants

  • We suggest 2-3 floating plants per 1sqm.
