New invasive pond plant guide for gardeners
National charity, Plantlife, have just published an informative and user-friendly guide on invasive aquatic plants called “What’s in your pot?”
Aimed at the domestic gardener and fish pond keeper, the free booklet explains what the problem is, a guide to invasive species and how to recognise them, a selection of recommended plants and simple advice on how gardeners should dispose of unwanted pond plants. The guide can be downloaded here. Plantlife are sending the Tees Valley pondscape a box of these booklets which they are distributing to local garden centres and gardening clubs.
