Jump Start Your Green Thumb Lifestyle With Help From Your Local Horticulture Experts
Aquatic plants are a fantastic addition to a backyard pond—and if you don't have a big water feature like that, you can set them up for success in a planter on your deck! They're beautiful, versatile, and available at Shades of Green Nursery + Landscape.
Native, water-loving iris, hardy waterlilies, and other aquatic plants help you create a thriving ecosystem in your pond or lake as they make your outdoor space more visually appealing. Learning to water garden isn't any harder than learning to dirt garden, and our garden center staff is knowledgeable and ready to answer your questions. We'll help you choose the right plants for your aquatic environment in Celina, Texas, and teach you everything you need to know about them. Sign up for our free newsletter or one of our free workshops to keep learning and developing your green thumb!
While you're at our garden center, browse our extensive selection of North Texas native perennials, well-adapted annuals, tools, supplies, gifts, and decor. We're confident you'll find everything you need and then some. Contact us for directions and we'll look forward to seeing you in Celina!
There's Even More to Enjoy on the Water
Your garden isn't limited to the cold hard ground. Whether you have a pond in your backyard or want to start an aquatic planter on your front step, you have a wide array of aquatic plants to choose from:
- Bacopa
- Copper Iris
- Virginia Iris
- American Water Willow
- Grassy Arrowhead
- Bandanna of the Everglades
- Swamp Milkweed
- Pickerelweed
- Hardy Waterlilies
- Tropical Waterlilies
These plants offer many of the same benefits as dirt-dwelling plants, except, well, you don't have to water them. They attract and support wildlife like frogs and dragonflies, help stabilize the soil and shoreline, and improve the quality of the water for a healthy backyard ecosystem.
Don't know anything about aquatic plants, aside from what we just told you up there? That's okay, because we do! We'll teach you how to plant and care for them so they thrive in your space for years to come. Visit our garden center today and learn more about everything we have to offer.
