It is native to the calm, still waters of South and Central America. It can be found from Paraguay to Cuba. It owes its popularity above all to its original appearance. Its small oval leaves with a diameter of 10 mm cm are arranged opposite each other on an elongated leaf stalk. These leaves are covered with fine hairs that trap air bubbles, allowing them to float. Depending on the light intensity, they are wavy or flat. Salvinia forms a third type of underwater leaves on which the spores are deposited.Like all floating plants, Salvinia is recommended for shady waters . Its great appetite for nitrogen and phosphorus compounds makes this plant a good ally in the fight against algae. Salvinia has low light and nutrient requirements. It grows well in both moderate and strong light. As a floating plant, it does not require a substrate but draws all the necessary nutrients directly from the water. During the vegetation period, it reproduces by spreading, whereby the growth rate is moderate. This makes it easy to control its growth and remove excess plants. It grows to a length of 3-6 cm and likes warm, humid air, so it is advisable to use a glass or cover when growing it.It should be placed in such a way that no condensation falls on the plants. It adapts very quickly to the new parameters. However, it should be borne in mind that it will die if there is too little light. It thrives best in soft to medium-hard water at 22-24°C. The in vitro culture of plants is carried out in tissue culture laboratories. Thanks to the sterile production conditions, the cuttings are free from snails, algae or pathogens.Planting:The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed of the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Place the plant on the surface of the water.

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 brings height and clear lines to the bank and shallow water zone. It is suitable for 0 to –15 cm planting depth, and flowers from May to July (V–VII).Flowering time: V–VII (May to July)Height: approx. 60–80 cmPlanting depth: 0 to –15 cmPot size: approx. 18 cmPlant specifications: The typical umbrella-shaped growth creates a modern, tidy accent at the edge of the pond.With a planting depth of 0 to –15 cm, Cyprus grass can be flexibly placed in marginal and shallow water areas.The 18-cm pot provides a stable start and makes it easier to place at the pond.Technical data:Botanical name: Cyperus alternifoliusGerman name: Cyprus grass (Umbrella Plant)Height (cm): 60 / 80 cmPlanting depth: 0 / –15 cmFlowering time: V–VIIWinter hardiness: Zone 1 / 2Pot size: 18 cmWith Cyperus alternifolius (Cyprus grass / Umbrella Plant), you bring a pond edge plant into your garden that stands out immediately thanks to its distinctive, umbrella-shaped silhouette. It is precisely this clear shape that makes it so popular: it brings structure to the bank planting, looks tidy and sets an exciting contrast to soft-growing marsh and flowering plants. Cyprus grass looks particularly harmonious by modern ponds or clearly defined shorelines – but even in naturalistic areas, it can be a deliberately placed structural highlight.With a height of approx. 60 to 80 cm, Cyperus alternifolius is suitable for the middle to background of marginal planting. It visually enhances the bank zone without completely covering the pond. The stated flowering period from May to July (V–VII) complements the season, although in this plant, the leaf and growth form are usually the main focus. When planted in small groups, a calm, architectural effect is created; individually positioned, the Cyprus grass forms a clear focal point. 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 a very shallow water area.With delivery in an 18-cm pot, you get good root volume, making establishment easier and ensuring greater stability . For a neat pond edge and maximum control, a planting basket is a practical option – this keeps the plant where it works best, and can be easily moved as needed.Shipping note: We make every effort to ensure that our plants arrive healthy and undamaged. Despite the greatest care, it can occur that plants are slightly damaged through postal shipping or other unforeseen events. This includes brown leaves as well as broken branches. We do not accept liability for this. Do not plant in open bodies of water such as lakes or biotopes.Zoo-Roco tip: Place Cyperus alternifolius so that the ‘umbrellas’ are clearly visible at eye level – it looks best when it is slightly reflected in the water. For a tidy pond edge, position the pot or basket at a 0 to –15 cm depth and combine a low groundcover in front so that the transition looks natural.
