PLANT CARE
How we care more for the plants we provide to our clients
Before we even purchased a plant we have an idea of who’s pond it would be happiest in and how happy it would make that client.
What we get when you purchase a plant online
It's very difficult to ship a plant rooted in mud and receive it resembling anything close to how it looked when the box was closed.
What we get when you purchase from a local grower
This plant was potted by a aquatic plant grower the previous season before we purchased it then, we clean out any foreign plants such as, string algae duckweed etc. we then, re-pot it adding more soil fertilizing and grow it for an additional 3 to 4 weeks before delivering it to our clients.

We make sure the plant is well established in our growing ponds before delivering them to you.
Aquatic Artisans Plant Care
On arriving we rinse out the container and apply a thin coating of gravel being careful not to smother the plant to keep the soil in.
