(3-12 sun)   75x60cm

(syn Scirpus) A superb reed with horizontal green and white banding on tall, erect stems. Gives great vertical accent and is best planted in full sun in shallow water margins as it colours well in this situation. Choose a realtively sheltered site out of strong winds as the stems are hollow and brittle if bent. Suitable for all sizes of pond or water feature. Cut back in spring.
