Description
Juncus maritimus (Marginal Aquatic)
Juncus maritimus, a native UK plant, thrives in coastal and salt marsh environments, making it an excellent choice for seaside gardens. Highly tolerant of sea spray and brackish conditions, it?s equally well-suited to ponds and wetland areas inland. This attractive marginal plant forms dense clumps of stiff, arching, bright green stems that stand tall and create a striking vertical presence. In summer, the stems are topped with loose clusters of brown flowers, adding seasonal appeal. Ideal for damp, poorly-drained soils, Juncus maritimus is a low-maintenance plant that?s perfect for boggy areas, pond margins, and water features. Its rigid, upright growth habit means it fits beautifully in both modern and naturalistic garden designs. As an evergreen to semi-evergreen, it offers winter interest and provides shelter for pond wildlife throughout the colder months. Height: 30-90cm (12in-35in) Spread: 60cm (24in)
