Evergreen cover plant for rockery, borders, ponds. Planted together with other plants in the garden it will give a nice contrast for its very showy color. It is used for ponds and along riversides.
Up to 1.20m tall. Dark green leaves. Hanging brown-reddish spikelets. Adapts to any deep and moist soil.
Dig a hole at least two or three times as wide and deep as the root ball. Take out the plant from the container and loosen roots to allow them to spread out in all direction. Cut possible broken roots. Mix the soil extracted with a substrate and fill part of the hole with the mixture obtained. Place the plant in the hole and cover with the remaining mixture. Compact the soil around the plant and water thoroughly.
