Typha Latifolia - Common Cattail (Bare Root)

Product Description

Enhance the beauty of your pond with the Typha Latifolia - Common Cattail (Bare Root)! This perennial plant thrives in full sun to part shade and can be submerged in water up to 12 inches deep. With its unique flowering spike and tall blade-like leaves reaching heights of 3 to 10 feet, the cattail is a stunning addition to any wetland or pond edge.

When you place an order, rest assured that these cattails will be cut down to a height of 12-14 inches before shipment, making them easy to plant while remaining sturdy. Simply plant the rhizome 3-4 inches deep in your pond's soil or mud, ensuring the stalk is above water level. Alternatively, pot them in 1 gallon containers with heavy loam soil for easy maintenance.

In the right conditions, these cattails will grow and spread, with the rhizome branching out under the soil to create more stalks. They can expand up to 1 foot in diameter each year, reaching heights of 4-6 feet, or even up to 10 feet tall. For a diverse cattail collection, consider mixing and matching with miniature cattails and graceful cattails.

With an active growth period in spring and a bloom period from June to July, these cattails will add beauty and interest to your pond all season long.
