For the past three winters we've been planting up our Floating Island Planters with a variety of winter annuals (pansies, clyclamen, ornamental cabbage etc.) with great success.  Evergreen bog plants also provide winter color, click here for a list evergreen bog plants.

Floating Islands not only brighten up your pond with a welcome spot of color but also provide cover for your fish from predators.  If you are interested in an Island Planter visit us at the shop and we'll show you how to plant your own.  Or call Nelson's (281-391-4769) and I will custom plant and Island for you!
