How To Make A Floating Island – Provide Habitat & Keep Water Clean, Beautify And Protect Your Pond.

Here is a great idea to enhance the ecosystem in your pond.

First of all, the type shown here are made with recycled plastic, our favorite! You plant aquatic plants that grow right through the island.

Floating islands keep the water clean thanks to the hanging roots of the plants, which remove harmful chemicals and heavy metals.

They provide a habitat for wildlife. Around the edges turtles will flourish, and on the island ducks will be safer from predators.

Last but not least – they are beautiful and interesting additions to any lake or pond.
