Flying Hedgehogs (Juncus ensifolius) - 9cm

Flying Hedgehogs / Beaver Dam Plant

Juncus ensifolius

Bright green, grass-like foliage is topped with numerous very dark brown seed heads making it an attractive and unusual addition to a pond and giving it it's common name.

This plant is semi evergreen, therefore in a mild winter may retain its stems/leaves. However in a harsh winter it will reduce back to its basket and begin growing again in the spring.

The recommended depth in water is calculated as the distance between the top of the basket and the water surface. Therefore "0" would be the basket rim at the water surface.

This plant is supplied in a standard plastic plant pot. It will benefit from being repotted into a mesh basket. See our range here.

This is available for posting as well as Click & Collect. Please note that the foliage may be trimmed on postal orders to safely fit the plant(s) in the box.
