Primrose Typha Angustifolia Lesser Bulrush 1 Litre Aquatic Pot Pond Plant from B&Q

Primrose

A fast-growing reed for pond margins. Position: full sun Soil type: tolerates most reliably moist or boggy soils, or aquatic compost Depth of water: 5-10cm Rate of growth: average Flowering period: July to August Hardiness: fully hardy This fast-growing bulrush will soon form a generous clump of slender, upright foliage, that's accompanied by cylindrical, reddish brown flower spikes in midsummer. Its thick and fleshy rhizomes will quickly spread in shallow water, forming a dense colony around the edges of a pond. Its vigorous growth makes it unsuitable for smaller water features (opt instead for Typha minima where space is limited), but when fully established and forming large drifts, it looks pretty impressive! Garden care: Lift and divide congested clumps in spring.
