{"product_id":"eleocharis-acicularis-pond-marginal-plant","title":"Eleocharis acicularis Pond Marginal Plant","description":"\u003cp\u003eYou get a low-maintenance marginal plant that keeps its fine, tufted shape through the colder months, adding a softer texture to pond-edge planting than broader-leaved varieties. It suits ponds in full sun or part shade and comes either as a single plant in a ready-potted 1 litre basket or as a pack of three smaller 9cm pot plants.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEleocharis acicularis is a tufted pond marginal plant built from fine, needle-like stems, each tipped with a small brown spikelet that sets it apart from broader-leaved marginals. It helps add a softer, grass-like texture to the pond edge, and because it needs little upkeep once established, it suits pond keepers who want low-maintenance planting at the margin.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt adapts to a range of light levels around the pond, from bright spots to more shaded corners, and being evergreen it keeps its form through the colder months rather than dying back each winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou can choose a single plant already potted into a 1 litre mesh aquatic basket, ready to lower straight into the pond, or a pack of three younger plants each supplied in a 9cm pot. The 9cm pot plants will need potting into a mesh basket before they go into the pond, while the 1 litre basket plant can be placed straight in, or moved into a larger basket as it grows.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs a native marginal plant, it suits naturalistic or wildlife-style pond planting schemes where locally occurring species are preferred.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSun\/Shade\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFull sun to part shade\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlowers\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAug \u0026amp; Sep\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrown\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrowth rate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMedium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEvergreen\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLittle maintenance is required.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNative\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNative\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWhat's included\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 litre: one plant in a 1 litre mesh aquatic basket; 9cm pot, pack of 3: three plants each in a 9cm pot.\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15-40 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePlanting depth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0-60 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"AquaticsHub","offers":[{"title":"1 litre \/ Single","offer_id":57646232109429,"sku":null,"price":15.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"9cm pot \/ Pack of 3","offer_id":57646232142197,"sku":null,"price":24.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0922\/0610\/4949\/files\/eleocharis-acicularis-pond-marginal-plant.jpg?v=1791807604","url":"https:\/\/aquaticshub.co.uk\/products\/eleocharis-acicularis-pond-marginal-plant","provider":"AquaticsHub","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
