The Round Pond Planting Basket by Lincolnshire Pond Plants Ltd is an essential tool for pond enthusiasts looking to maintain a tidy and healthy aquatic garden. Designed to promote optimal root development through superior water circulation, this basket is ideal for small to medium-sized aquatic plants; however, users should note that the 1-litre size is best suited for younger or smaller plant varieties rather than established, deep-rooted specimens.

No, you should always use dedicated aquatic pond compost, which is free from nitrates and phosphates that cause algae blooms.
No, the basket is a standalone mesh unit. We recommend purchasing aquatic planting fabric separately if needed.
Yes, the baskets are made from inert, non-toxic plastic designed specifically for use in ponds with fish and wildlife.
Generally, aquatic plants in a 1-litre basket should be checked once per season; if roots have overgrown the mesh, it is time to upgrade or divide the plant.
The baskets are constructed from durable, high-quality materials resistant to the harsh environment of an outdoor pond, including UV exposure.
Use a layer of pond-safe hessian or a specialized aquatic planting liner inside the basket before adding soil.
Add a layer of larger, clean river stones or pond gravel to the top of the basket to add weight and anchor the plant base.
To set up your basket, place your plant in the center and fill the surrounding space with a dedicated aquatic pond compost. Once planted, press the soil down firmly and top with gravel to prevent the soil from floating away upon submersion. These baskets are compatible with most standard pond shelf configurations. To care for the basket, perform seasonal maintenance by removing any debris caught in the mesh and gently cleaning the outside surface during your regular pond cleanout to maintain healthy water flow.
