Description
Typha latifolia (Marginal Aquatic)
Typha latifolia, commonly known as the Common Bulrush, is a familiar and iconic sight along Britain’s waterways. This large, vigorous aquatic plant produces tall, strap-like foliage and upright flower stems that can reach impressive heights of 2.4m (94). Its distinctive chocolate-brown, cigar-shaped blooms stand out, providing an attractive visual feature in your pond or lake. These flowers remain intact throughout the winter, offering seasonal interest long after the foliage has died back. As a hardy native perennial, Typha latifolia thrives in marginal aquatic areas, making it an excellent choice for lakes and very large ponds. Its fast-growing nature and robust structure allow it to form dense colonies, providing valuable shelter for wildlife. Perfect for creating a natural, wildlife-friendly environment, this plant adds height, texture, and year-round beauty to large water features. Height: 240cm (94). Spread: 150cm (59). Planting depth: Zones 2 and 3 to 30cm (12) below water level. Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.
