No Space for a Pond?
Now you can have your very own Pond on the Patio!
Simply find a nice tub and make it waterproof - if you soak a wooden barrel for a couple of days it will seal itself. Fill up one third with aquatic or heavy garden soil and get some water ready in advance (so as not to put your plants into fresh tap water). After a day or so, plant your Pygmaea Lilies or any other suitable Marginal Plants straight into the soil. Now add the water, being careful not to drown the plants - it is best to add more water gradually as the plants grow. Enjoy watching your Pond on the Patio come to life!
