Juncus effusus f. spiralis


Juncus effusus f. spiralis (Juncus effusus f. spiralis)

The local Horticultural College has now opened its new plant centre. I found this wonderful grass to plant on the stream bank as it enjoys getting its feet wet!

My hair looked a bit like the plant this morning Spritz before I had a haircut but thankfully it was not the same colour! . This is a great grass for sitting near the stream and very unusual.

I have sad news, Teddygirl - the stream flooded and washed my plant away, out into the Bristol Channel, probably. :-(( I was very upset, as I loved it!

I might well try to find another one, and plant it a bit higher up the bank to give it a chance to get its roots down. I hope yours do well. :-))
