How to plant

• We recommend wearing gardening gloves when handling compost.
• Choose an appropriate Bermuda aquatic basket for the size of the plant you are planting.
• To prevent compost escaping from the planting basket use a square of Bermuda Hessian.
• For stability, particularly for taller plants, large rocks and stones may need to be placed in the base of baskets.
• Part fill the basket with compost.
• Place the plant in the centre of the basket and spread out the roots.
• Add more compost up to 1cm off the top of the basket.
• Firm plants in well.
• Apply a thin layer of grit or fine gravel to prevent fish from stirring up the soil.
• Slowly lower the aquatic basket into location within the pond.
