Floating Island – an oval floating basket 40 × 52 cm, planted with at least 3 different plant species:

  • Amazon frogbit (Limnobium laevigatum) – an effective “wastewater treatment plant”; during winter bring to a cool bright room
  • Marsh myosotis (Myosotis palustris) – grows lushly; if left in the water over winter, it may go dormant – in early spring, once the ice melts, it resumes growth quickly
  • Lysimachia nummularia (Lysimachia nummularia) – grows vigorously; cold-hardy
  • Water mint (Mentha aquatica) – grows vigorously; floating shoots expand the island; may go dormant in winter if left in the water – resumes growth quickly in early spring
  • Water milfoil (Myriophyllum L.) – grows vigorously; floating shoots expand the island

You can also plant other aquatic plants on the island yourself.

The island can be anchored or left to float freely on the pond, showing the direction of the wind. In addition to its decorative role, the island shades the water surface and filters the water. The plants absorb nutrients directly from the water, reducing the likelihood of algae growth. Floating island plants thrive especially well in nutrient-rich artificial ponds with fish.
