Re: Horticulture question

This is what I've seen called "curly rush" or corkscrew rush. I'm not sure what the difference is between Juncus spirales and Juncus effusus though. At my house these can be quite invasive- so put them in a pot! I eventually hanked mine out of the pot too- and I'm still pulling out small starts of it occassionally. 
I'm fairly certain it is unkillable.

Today one of my garden club embers showed ua a plant she had received
from somewhere and asked for information on its culture.  None of us had
a clue, and we're a fairly knowledgeable group.  It is Juncus spirales, and
she was told it was a bog plant but she thought it could be grown in a pot
if it were kept very moist.  The plant appears to be a mass of twisted spikes
about 8-10inches long, but maybe it grows larger in nature.  Can any of you
give me any information to help her?
