underwater gardening

Underwater gardening, also known as aquatic gardening, involves cultivating plants beneath the surface of water, typically in ponds, lakes, or aquariums. This practice can enhance the beauty of aquatic environments, promote biodiversity, and improve water quality. Gardeners often select native aquatic plants that provide habitat for marine life, help filter pollutants, and oxygenate the water. Techniques may include using containers or floating gardens, and care must be taken to manage the balance of the ecosystem. Underwater gardening not only contributes to aesthetic appeal but also supports ecological health in aquatic ecosystems.
