Cyperus alternifolius

That's it , but I thought they were an indoor plant.....

Nah - they are a swamp plant. They love lots of water.....

( not frost hardy- so get it indoors- and water it well!)

Thank you!

I took on my plot last week and it was found happily growing away in the middle of my rather exposed and neglected plot. Interesting that it is an indoor plant, and still alive!

ETA: Oooh, i'll bring it home tomorrow then, I've got just the spot for it

all plants were originally outdoors plants...

I tried to kill mine several times but it kept coming back - they are perfectly fine outside...
