Overview

This wonderful foliage plant creates a fibre-optic effect, particularly when its slender tips are topped with small silvery white flower heads. It's primarily grown as an architectural specimen around the margins of a pond, where its submerged shoots can also help to oxygenate the water, but it's also excellent in a bog garden. It could even be kept in a pot - provided you make sure it's kept really well watered.

Specifications

  • Position: full sun or partial shade
  • Soil: moist to wet, humus-rich soil or aquatic compost
  • Depth of water: 0-8cm
  • Rate of growth: average
  • Flowering period: June to August
  • Hardiness: fully hardy

Care guide

For best results, grow Isolepis cernua in full sun or partial shade, as a marginal in a pond or in a bog garden. Tidy up in autumn, but don't cut the foliage back completely.

How your order will arrive

Pots and Packaging
Our 9cm pots are given extra packaging to protect the plant. This extra packaging consists of a recyclable plastic blister pack which is then placed in a cardboard box for delivery.

Preparation
The nursery will ensure the plant is moist while it's waiting to be picked up. Our quality control team waters the plant before packing them where necessary to make sure that the plant is suitably watered for transport. Plants with long delicate stems are secured with canes to prevent damage.

Plant on Arrival
Typically plants are delivered ready to plant and will take some time to settle, grow and look more like the product image above.
