Hygrophila corymbosa / Cherry Leaf - Giant Waterleaf max. growth height - 50 cm Country of origin  Southeast Asia Suitability Discus aquarium Type  Stem plant Family Acanthaceae Genus Hygrophila Propagation Tip cutting Growth rate fast pH 5 - 8 Water hardness 0 - 30 °dh Notes  Beginner plant Hygrophila corymbosa is a widespread stem plant in Southeast Asia. There are some varieties that differ in leaf shape. Generally, the emergent leaves are considerably darker in colour than in the submerged stage. The giant waterleaf is a good beginner‘s plant for the background. Its rapid growth absorbs excess nutrients and thus deprives algae of their food source. As soon as the shoots reach the water surface, they should be cut back by half. A tiered arrangement of the stems is recommended.

Cyperus alternifolius – Cyprus grass for pond edgeCyperus alternifolius (Umbrella Plant) is a striking structural plant with umbrella-shaped growth for the garden pond. With a height of 60–80 cm, it adds height and clean lines to the bank and shallow water zone. It is suitable for planting depths from 0 to –15 cm, the flowering period is from May to July (V–VII).Flowering period: V–VII (May to July)Height: approx. 60–80 cmPlanting depth: 0 to –15 cmPot size: approx. 9 cmPlant specifications: The typical umbrella-shaped growth adds a modern, organised accent at the pond edge.Thanks to the planting depth from 0 to –15 cm, cyperus grass can be flexibly positioned in bank and shallow water areas.Technical data:Botanical name: Cyperus alternifoliusGerman name: Cyprus grass (Umbrella Plant)Height (cm): 60 / 80 cmPlanting depth: 0 / –15 cmFlowering period: V–VIIWinter hardiness: Zone 1 / 2Pot size: 9 cmWith Cyperus alternifolius (Cyprus grass / Umbrella Plant), you bring a pond edge plant into your garden that immediately stands out due to its distinctive, umbrella-shaped silhouette. It is precisely this clear shape that makes it so popular: it brings structure to the bank planting, appears neat and sets an exciting contrast to softly growing marsh and flowering plants. Especially at modern ponds or clearly defined shorelines, Cyprus grass looks very harmonious – but it can also be a deliberate structural point in near-natural settings.With a height of approx. 60 to 80 cm, Cyperus alternifolius is suitable for the mid- to background of the bank planting. It visually builds up the bank zone without completely obscuring the pond. The stated flowering period from May to July (V–VII) complements the seasonal progression, although with this plant it is usually the leaf and growth form that are the main focus. Planted in small groups, a calm, architectural effect is created; planted singly, Cyprus grass becomes a clear eye-catcher. The recommended planting depth of 0 to –15 cm makes the plant ideal for the bank and shallow water zone. You can plant it directly in moist bank soil or place it in the very shallow water area.Note on shipping: We do our utmost to ensure that our plants arrive with you healthy and undamaged. Despite our best efforts, it can happen that plants are slightly damaged by postal shipping or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as bent branches. We accept no liability for this. Do not plant in open waters such as lakes or biotopes.Zoo-Roco tip: Plant Cyperus alternifolius so that the “umbrellas” are clearly visible at eye level – it is most attractive when slightly reflected in the water. For a neat pond edge, place the pot or basket at a depth of 0 to –15 cm and combine a low ground cover in front to make the transition look natural.

The marsh forget-me-not really comes into its own in damp areas where many bedding plants struggle: It looks light, friendly and blends harmoniously into mixed pond edge plantings. One major advantage is the long flowering period from May to August (V-VIII). This means that the edge zone remains lively and visually attractive for months.With a height of approx. 20 to 40 cm, the plant is particularly suitable for the foreground at the edge of the pond or as a filling element between stones, stepping stones and other shore plants. Planted in small groups, it creates a calm, flat effect that quickly looks natural and reliably closes gaps.
