Ponds and Rivers

Drainage schemes in the countryside have meant that wetlands are another of Britain's vanishing habitats, and it is thought a third of ponds have disappeared over the last 50 years. The impact on their related fauna has been massive; even the Common Toad is now on the Government's biodiversity action plan "watchlist".

We are particularly pleased with the pond plant collections we offer and our excellent value water lilies. As with all our native plants and seeds, our supplier is a Flora Locale code of practice signatory. Our plant collections are carefully selected by experts - you won't find any invasive species like the Water fern in the photo. We make the kits up according to the perimeter of your pond, and also offer some monitoring accessories.

We offer courses on creating a wildlife pond or a full advisory service. Our consultant ecologist will visit your site and write a report recommending a scheme of action, and is available for further site visits to advise on maintenance and development. If you're interested in this service please get in touch using our contact form. If you have a smaller size project we suggest you call ARC or Pond Conservation for advice.
