It’s important to keep an eye on water loss and to remember to top up your pond during the hot spells. Excessive water loss will cause distress to fish in your pond and can expose them to predators.

Your plants will also suffer too, if water levels aren’t kept an eye on.

Anyone else also thinking to themselves that it has been a little too hot?! How very British of us! But with temperatures recently at an all time high, it’s important that you’re taking time to prepare your pond for this heat.

Equisetum hyemale, commonly known as Dutch rush, is a remarkable evergreen plant that brings year-round interest to your garden.

This resilient species thrives even in extreme conditions, surviving up to 500 miles within the Arctic Circle. It is conveniently available potted in aquatic soil, making it ready for your pond.

With a medium growth rate, it can reach a height of up to 180 cm and is best planted at a depth of 0 to 15 cm. Native to the British Isles, it prefers a position in full sun to partial shade, although it does not specifically attract pollinators.

As a marginal pond plant, it adds a unique touch to aquatic landscapes.

Its our final day of trading today!

As I type this before opening the doors to the public for the last time, I think about the 23 years I have worked for World of Water. Highs and Lows, we have been through a global pandemic, had a fire, worked on water features at Blenheim Palace, imported some amazing fish, bred some fish (even a UK first) in the time I have been with the company.

Here are a few fun photos from my years at Bicester.

Thank you to all of our customers over the Years!

Remember to support real shops!
