Aquatic Garlic


View Larger Image
This California native is a great new addition to any water garden. It grows stems of one to two feet and blooms in June. It has lavender pink flowers that look and feel like silk to the touch. This plant is nice during the winter when other plants are dormant, but the main use is as a pest deterrent. One or two of these plants per 500 gallons of pond water will usually keep your pond pest free. (Evergreen)
