Choosing Plants for a Natural Swimming Pond: My Mistakes and Favorites

After a few years with my natural swimming pond, I've learned which plants were excellent additions—and which ones created more problems than they were worth. In this video I walk through the pond, discuss the aquatic and shoreline plants I've tried, explain why some have become favorites, and share a few that I probably wouldn't plant again. If you're planning a natural swimming pond, wildlife pond, or water garden, I hope these real-world observations help you avoid a few mistakes and find plants that thrive.
