Re: Horticulture question

Yeah- well i don't think is cares about heat- and dry heat at that. I was still ripping up peices of it all last summer. I'm really hoping that our 20 nights for the past few days has finally killed it. It looks cute,but just gets way too carried away.

Unkillable?  Plant it here where it's hot and won't get any water.  LOL

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?
