Phalaris arundinacea (Reed canary grass)

Phalaris arundinacea (Reed canary grass) is a vigorous and tough aquatic grass; too vigorous for most garden ponds but can provide good wildlife habitat in larger natural ponds. Its non-descript look and lax habit means that it tends to flop over and smother other plants, so it spreads steadily, makes excellent wildfowl cover and is a good filtration plant.

This plant will rarely be available in potted form by mail order direct from the website but is usually available at the nursery in small numbers. If you are interested in obtaining it by mail order, please email us and we can often oblige. An additional packing and carriage charge may be necessary.
