Create a harmonious water garden by pairing colorful perennial flowers like water lilies with aquatic plants such as cattails and lotus. Consider the sunlight and water depth needs of each plant.
Choosing the Right Perennials
Select perennial flowers that thrive in moist conditions like iris, astilbe, and lobelia. These plants will complement the beauty of your water garden and attract pollinators.
Matching Aquatic Plants with Perennials
Combine aquatic plants like water hyacinth and pickerelweed with perennial flowers to add texture and variety to your water garden. Ensure proper spacing and consider the growth habits of each plant.
