Cyperus Percamenthus ‘King Tut’
£3.25 – £29.95
Description
A shorter and more compact alternative to Egyptian Papyrus, this plant is popular amongst gardeners, a perfect marginal plant ideal for smaller water features.
Repotting or planting
9cm marginal plants require potting into a larger mesh basket. Place in a pond no deeper than 1/3 maximum recommended planting depth to allow the plants to establish. 1ltr marginal plants do not require repotting, place in pond no deeper than 1/2 maximum recommended planting depth to allow the plants to establish. 3ltr and 5ltr plants do not require repotting, as they are larger more established plants they can be placed up to the maximum recommended depth. There is no need to remove the mesh basket.
Care instructions
Little maintenance is required. Trim just above the water surface after foliage has died back in Autumn to tidy.
