How Do You Plant Flowers in a Pond

Fill your container with planting material, plant several bunches of them together and submerge into the desired section of your pond. Another option: Tie a bunch to a weight and drop it into the pond, using one bunch for every 2 square feet of surface area. Their roots will take up nutrients from the water.

What soil do I use for pond plants?

Heavy clay soil is an ideal planting mix for pond plants. The clay soil or heavy loam holds water and nutrients without floating to the surface. You can dig up garden soil if you have a spot where the soil is heavy and clay-like. Adding a thin layer of gravel on top of the soil may help hold the soil in place.
