Wet Zones in the Garden

Unusual Eye-Catchers in the Garden

"Not only a stream or a pond can create attractive focal points in your garden, but also uniquely designed wet zones. You can transform your green oasis into something extraordinary. Gardens located in rather unfavorable, shady areas can flourish and bloom in a particularly lush and attractive way.

Hostas, primroses, false asters, ornamental mosses, ferns, umbrella coneflowers, lobelias, and irises are plants that absolutely love such locations and, with little care, can easily populate the wet zones in your garden.

Also, swamp geraniums, bittersweet nightshade, marsh marigolds, and swamp irises quickly captivate viewers and, with proper planning, can ensure that something is blooming almost year-round, even in small spaces.

And for those who only use native species, there’s no need to worry about harsh winters, as, with minimal care, your wet zone will bring you joy and relaxation for many years."

Creating a Wet Zone is Quick and Easy

"It is important to prevent the water from draining too quickly, but at the same time, you should also avoid rainwater accumulating for an extended period. This means that after outlining your future wetland area, you should remove the top layer of soil and secure the base with a layer of cement or pond liner to prevent the zone from drying out too quickly.

At about two-thirds of the height of the basin, insert a tube to allow standing water to drain. Then, fill the basin in the lowest area first with pebbles and then with sand. Try to avoid adding excessive nutrients to the wet zone, as this could lead to uncontrollable algae growth over time."

Help Against Unwanted Algae

Especially in wet zones with standing water, you can significantly reduce algae growth by introducing some of the following plants. For example, Stratoides aloides, the common water milfoil, or frogbit can be placed in the water. Their vigorous growth prevents algae from flourishing, and they can easily be removed with a rake if they become too lush.
