Bioretention Pond
A bioretention pond is essentially a sophisticated feature of rain gardens. Not every rain garden needs a bioretention zone. Many rain gardens can exist in blissful simplicity. But on sites with serious drainage issues, large quantities of water, it may be necessary to do some excavation work. Layers of different sized strata help with drainage beyond the native wetland plant water metabolism power.
As we’ve said before: “Rain gardens are the future of stormwater management. Imagine a system that harnesses nature to re-engineer a site to capture and sequester toxic runoff before it even starts. And habitat restoration with native plants for butterfly + pollinator gardens are part of the package? Rain gardens are the answer to many of the “wet soil problem area” questions.” Bioretention zones become a necessary part of the planning when a site has standing water for more than 7 days as a regular occurrence.
Wetland Plants for Rain Gardens:
Wetland plants are nature’s water filters, improving water quality and supporting diverse ecosystems. The aquatic plants that thrive in wetlands also prevent erosion, provide vital habitats, and store carbon. This collectively combats climate change. The beauty of the plants enhances landscape aesthetics. Planting native wetland flora is a sustainable action that benefits everyone.
