Care Guide

Excellent pest and disease resistance

Generally pest free. Can suffer from mildew and rust, but this can be prevented by adequate spacing and good air circulation. MORE

Water during dry weather

Needs a permanently wet soil - do not allow soil to dry out.

Full sun to partial shade

Grows best in full sun but will be fine with some partial shade

Any wet, poorly draining soil

Any permanently moist or waterlogged soil.

Feeding not required

No need to feed - this plant gets all the nutrients it needs from the soil or pond water. ?v=1613300718
