The pond is shallow, about 1', and we are wondering whether some aquatic baskets of bulrushes would be a good option? The container is actually on our neighbour's boundary but we would like something to the left of it to disguise it.
I agree with @Hostafan1 - unless the photo is deceptive, I don't think you need to hide the trough. If you still want to, it would need to be something which hides it all year round rather than just in the growing period. All in all, you have a lovely pond ( or should that be lake ? )
I agree … I like it … it’s like the old water troughs we used to see in all the cattle grazed meadows; but I assumed the OP didn’t like it, and we keep getting criticised if we dare to disagree with posters regarding their style preferences 😉
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Some of the evergreen grasses suitable for ponds would do. Acorus gramineus. The variegated one is good. They may not get quite tall enough to completely hide it, but would do the job well enough.
It's a place where beautiful isn't enough of a word....
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...
