    Garden & Landscape - 11 hours ago

    Additional Details

    I saw a blog sites with pictures that features many hostas planted in the man made streams. I put mine in a taller pot so that kois will not reach it in the middle of the pond. It is planted in soil with compost and small gravel on the rim to prevent soil/compost from surfacing. Will this hostas perform well in the water and what are the benefits it can give to the pond like the irises which balance nitrates. Thanks for any answer.
