Afternoon all,
I have done more work on my pond and have surrounded it with a 30-40cm wide raised bed area (about 15 cm tall) where I plan to plant some bulbs soon and some wild flowers next year.
The pond receives lots of sun light in the summer where as now, the sun only hits the pond for about an hour around noon ish and I am not sure if it hits it earlier in the day. This is due to the fact the pond is nearish to some trees so as the sun is lower more shade is caste over the pond area from these trees.
So, I was wondering, is it OK to plant some bulbs (and plants next year) which require full sun or partial shade if the pond only receives this amount of light in late spring/up to the end of summer and not for the full year?
Thank you for your help,
Samuel
