Vegetated Shelves for Wet Detention Basins
Wet Detention Basins (stormwater ponds) are the traditional means of managing stormwater in many areas, even though they are not particularly good at removing pollutants. They can be made more effective - and much safer - by adding gently sloping shallow water shelves with dense vegetation around the perimeter.
Vegetated shelves need dense, healthy stands of diverse native plants to look great, function well and fight mosquitoes.
Coastal Plain Conservation Nursery, Inc. has all the species you need to vegetate wet detention basin shelves, in the perfect size containers, at great prices.
