Unique Fern-Like Floating Plant That Changes Color with the Seasons
Azolla, also known as Fairy Moss, is a unique floating pond plant and true aquatic fern with finely textured, toothed leaves. This eye-catching plant adds seasonal interest by turning vibrant red in cooler water temperatures during spring and fall. Azolla can float freely on the water’s surface or grow along damp soil and moist rocks at the pond’s edge, making it a versatile addition to any water garden. It helps provide surface coverage, reduces sunlight penetration, and supports a balanced pond environment. For optimal growth, use a plant fertilizer such as Microbe-Lift Bloom & Grow. Each portion typically covers 1 to 2 square feet of surface area, making it ideal for small to medium-sized ponds.
