The Common (Soft) Rush is a robust, disease-resistant plant excellent for borders and bogs. It creates a beautiful transition between water and rock. It produces slender green spikes with a tuft of flowers near the tip, growing 2-3 feet tall. It is one of the best natural water clarifiers, and does well potted in the pond or planted in bogs. This versatile plant is used in Japan to weave Tatami mats. The Common Rush is hardy to Zone 4 and will re emerge every Spring. It ships as rootstock of 24 plants with trimmed leaves. Please read the planting instructions to insure transplant success.
