Description

The Dwarf Papyrus Bog Plant is a compact, semi-aquatic perennial that enhances water gardens and container arrangements. This plant is characterized by its slender, green, triangular stems that culminate in distinctive umbrella-like clusters of foliage, adding an architectural element to aquatic landscapes. Typically reaching heights of 1 to 3 feet, it serves as a manageable and non-invasive alternative to the larger Cyperus papyrus.

‘Dwarf Papyrus’ Bog Plant thrives in USDA Hardiness Zones 9-11, the Dwarf Papyrus is often cultivated as an annual in cooler regions or kept indoors as a houseplant during winter. It flourishes in full sun to partial shade and requires consistently moist soil, ideally with the pot submerged 0-4 inches below the water surface. This plant propagates viviparously, producing new plantlets from flower heads that touch the water, a process that can be facilitated by floating a trimmed flower head upside down in water.

Benefits	This papyrus can (and should in cooler climates) be brought indoors for the winter months, then back outdoors after the snow melts and the waters start to warm.
Appearance	The distinct mop-like heads sway in the breeze. The thread like leaves are shorter and more compact than the standard Papyrus.
Size	Height: About 2 feet.
Preferred Growing Conditions	6+ hrs/day direct sunlight. Move to greenhouse before frost arrives.
Botanical Name	Cyperus haspan var viviparus

The table below shows the estimated shipping and pick-up weeks for destinations to USA states. These dates can change depending on weather and how strong the plants are at that time.

For example, a wet spring will have many clouds leading to less sunshine. Thus, the plants may need a bit longer to grow strong enough for transplanting and transit. With the planet heating up, a warm spring may help the plants grow strong enough to ship before the dates in this table.
