| Description: |
The definitive guide to plants and planting for a natural swimming pool. This beautifully illustrated book explains the importance of plants to the natural pool system, the roles of the different aquatic plant categories, how to achieve the best planting design, and how to plant and care for the plants in a natural pool. |
| Synopsis: |
Plants are the engine room of a natural swimming pool, ensuring the successful functioning of its biological cleaning system and creating a wonderful natural environment in which to swim. Understanding the role of aquatic plants in achieving clean, clear water is therefore essential, and learning how to design with aquatic and poolside plants will allow you to develop your pool into an inspirational water garden. This book explains the natural swimming pool system and the ways in which plants contribute to good water quality, before considering the role of each of the aquatic plant categories in detail. It goes on to consider the importance of good design, explaining the principles of designing a poolscape and showing you how to put them into practice to create a planting plan which is both functional and attractive. The book concludes with a detailed guide to planting techniques, plant care and maintenance. Planting and caring for your natural swimming pool is not difficult and can be a delight, but sound information and expert advice will make all the difference. This beautifully illustrated book will guide you through the whole process, from principles to planting to maintenance, ensuring that you achieve a successful natural swimming pool which is also a beautiful aquatic garden. |
