plants for edging

[DrDave]

I would use the wire vine. It looks natural is maintenance free once it starts spreading.

I used creeping jennys when I had my pond ground level they grow into the pond which with help w filtering the watera bit and they spread out to cover a lot of ground and they are cheap

The hyssops won't handle our winters, from what I can find on the net, creeping jenny is not in our stores yet. But I do have a lot of wild plants "weeds" to some that are creeping plants with some nice flowers on them, letting them grow, doing some nice bank covering.

addy can you post some pics? Thanks.

 

[addy1]

of the weeds? that are flowering? I have not been here long enough to know what they are, but will get pictures and post if that is what you are referring to .
Not today lol, we are now under a tornado watch, staying inside.

I wanted to know if there were any plants that i can edge around the perimeter of the pond but in the water. I want something that could possibly grow up the sides and onto the rocks. Trying to cover the liner.

there are quite a few...lots you would have to really watch or they will take over, such as Water Celery, Mints ( I have chocolate mint growing), Chameleon plant, Creeping Jenny, to list a few, I would have to think more for others.

It missed us jw went south, but wow the rain 17. plus inches an hour it was coming dow, luckily did not rain that hard for an hour.

 

[j.w]

Man, 17"..............unbelievable! We are getting rain today and then the clouds open up to bright/warm sunshine and big black dark clouds surround the sun. Would love to go for a walk but fear I would get drenched w/ this unpredictable weather

 

[addy1]

Never have seen it rain that hard, unreal, my pup was trying to run, the pressure was dropping dramatically, no thunder but she knew something was coming.

We just had a big old hail storm come through here. Pretty good sized hail for around here.
