Default Plants' soil makes water dirty

.What is the best way to allow the plants to exist in the pond yet keep
the water clear. I can take them out and turn off the pump and then when
the soil etc has gone the bottom, take it out but the same thing is going
to happen when I put them back.

======================
My pond plants (except water lilies) do well planted in a small gravel from
Lowe's at $3 to $4 per 50 lb bag. Get the smallest gravel you can find.
