Super Seeds Cyperus Alternifolius nanum Umbrella House Plant 200 Pcs

Umbrella Plant (Cyperus Alternifolius) - Grow this unique, tropical plant from Umbrella Plant seeds! Also called the Umbrella Palm or Umbrella Grass Plant, this unusual perennial prefers to be kept wet at all times. In fact, it can grow very well submerged in water. Flower spikes and slim leaves form "umbrellas" on top of dark green stems. The best flowering and growth results appear in full sun, but Umbrella Plants can tolerate some shade. Brown leaf tips will form on the Umbrella Palm tree if it is allowed to dry out. Tidy the plant by removing broken or dead stems.

Cyperus Alternifolius Umrella Plant does best in a tropical environment, but it quickly adapts to the home. You cannot over water this plant! It will thrive when its roots are kept continuously wet. To ensure that the plant does not dry out, it is best to put the pot inside a second larger pot that has water in it, or grow Umbrella Plant in an aquarium or swamp type environment. Umbrella Grass Plant is well-suited as an ornamental water plant.
