Picture of Juncus Effusus Spiralis (2778)
Juncus Effusus Spiralis

aka Corkscrew Rush or Crazy Hair

=Habit: Clump =Leaves: Evergreen, Green =Mature HxW: 90cm x 100cm

Something a little different! Juncus Spiralis has foliage that twists and turns. This curly variety adds a bit of whimsy to the garden. Great to grow in fun containers such as head shaped pots, great for kids to enjoy because of the plants’ playfulness and irresistibility to touch. Perennial

Don't allow the soil to dry out. Foliage will turn yellow then brown if it gets too dry. It's a good idea to keep your corkscrew rush plant in a pot without a drainage hole. Juncus is native to marsh areas, so it loves soggy soil
