Cyperus Papyrus (Marginal Aquatic)

This architechtural tender perennial makes a superb conservatory plant or aquatic marginal for an indoor pool. Papyrus sends up intruiging triangular stems, topped with mops of green foliage and brown flower spikelets throughout summer. Cyperus papyrus is superb for adding vertical architechture to planting schemes and holds a coveted RHS AGM. This striking perennial remains evergreen if grown in temperatures above 15C (59F). Height: 200cm (78″). Spread: 120cm (48″). Planting depth: Zones 1 & 2 to a maximum depth of 10cm (4″) below water level.

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

Plant Cyperus papyrus into consistently moist, boggy soil, or in the shallow margins of ponds to a maximum depth of 10cm (4″) below water level. Choose a position in sun or semi shade.
