duncfmac Posted June 10, 2012 Share Posted June 10, 2012 Is there garden plants that could be harmful to ducks? I am creating duck pen and have been clearing area for them.(3 kackie campbells ) There is ivy , fushia bush and ferns and crocosmia bushes. I realise the ducks will do their own clearing of at least some of these but are any of these plants/bushes a problem? Would it be worth grassing the area?(25 meters square) Hoping climbing ivy and fushia will provide shade and some shelter. Still got four weeks till get our s. Any advice gratefully received.
