Wetland Planting Service

Wetland plants add aesthetic appeal to the shores of your lake, but these are also beneficial to a pond’s health. Native plant roots help prevent erosion, and they also help balance the nutrient load and add oxygen.

What We Do

The filtration created by wetland plants is a natural way of slowing the pond’s aging process.

In older ponds or those with a high nutrient load, cyanobacteria can outcompete beneficial microscopic algae and potentially create a harmful situation if the blooms proliferate and produce toxins.

Not only do shoreline plants filter phosphorus from incoming water but they also compete with algae and cyanobacteria for nutrients within the pond and promote a healthy balance. This competition can reduce the amount of free phosphorus and may limit excessive algae or cyanobacteria growth. Our biologists can design and install a native wetland planting package to help you stabilize your pond shoreline and slow the flow of incoming water. During installation, our team will ensure plants are placed at the correct depth and spacing to encourage a dense stand of vegetation and create a more balanced ecosystem.

Wetland Planting Details
Native wetland and shoreline plants often have a large root system to tolerate fluctuating water levels throughout the year. Establishing shoreline plants can also help reduce the amount of grass clippings that enter the pond and contribute to eutrophication. We have wetland plant packages available specific to your pond/lake size. They consist of a grower’s choice of native plants. All plants are individually packed in 4” pots. Not available in all states.
