Broadleaf Cattail is also commonly known as Common Bulrush. It has tall flat sword-like foliage that is blue-green in color. In late summer it produces catkins, which are distinctive, velvety brown flower spikes. Cattail spreads aggressively underwater, so planting it in an aquatic container prevents it from taking over your pond. Cattail is a marginal plant liking wet, boggy soil, and pond edges.
Plants for your fish pond provide a natural environment and shade for your fish. Plants also provide fish with hiding spots from predators. Soaking up fish waste and extra minerals, plants keep green algae from growing, helping to keep your water clear. Floating leaves give shade to the water, keeping it cooler and stopping algae growth. Fish also often use underwater plants to lay their eggs, as plants offer protection as well. Last of all plants in your pond create natural beauty for you to enjoy!
