The Dwarf Papyrus is a tropical bog plant with unique foliage that makes it an exotic accent. This is a smaller version of the plant once used in Egyptian paper-making. It is stunning in water gardens or containers. Additionally, this plant may be wintered indoors.
The Dwarf Papyrus does best when given partial to full sun exposure. For watering, do not allow the soil to dry out, thus keep it moist at all times. The Dwarf Papyrus plant is not winter hardy so make sure to bring it indoors.
About Our Plants
Our soil is custom blended and contains only the highest quality Canadian peat. We don’t try to cut cost with cheaper mixes. Additionally, all of our plants are grown with 100 to 180 day time release fertilizer so you won’t be running out of it just when the plants arrive. This is not the case with the quick release 30 day fertilizers that many other companies tend to use.
We do approximately 90% of our own liners. Since the cost is relatively inexpensive, we put twice as many liners in each container for many of the varieties. Accordingly, this makes for a much fuller plant.
All of our plants are given more than adequate spacing. For instance, most of the flowering bushes and trellis plants have 4 square feet of spacing. The Boston fern hanging baskets, for example, have 6 square feet. This allows our plants to grow as big and full as possible.
