juncus effusus
even in death...
even in death…
You’re awesome! This is a Juncus Effusus “Spiralis” or “corkscrew rush”…or a few other names i’m not going to list. This is a perennial, best planted in a container or as a houseplant. I’ve been told it becomes more wavy with less light.

Pond on Great Ayton Moor
Pond on Great Ayton Moor
For all the whinging about the British weather there are not many days in the year when I actually end up running in the rain. I did so this morning. With poor visibility I headed up onto Great Ayton Moor intending to look at the heather and ended up by this pond. I’m not sure if it’s natural or manmade. I suspect the latter but it has no name on the Ordnance Survey map.
It’s quite easy to find.…

Some friends and I went to an amazing nursery here in Austin today and I still can't believe what I found. Juncus effusus 'Spiralis'!!
Commonly referred to as corkscrew rush, it is a cultivar with uncertain origins of the common rush. I have seen this plant many times on tumblr and mistakenly believed that it was a succulent when in fact it grows in wetlands usually on pond shores. What you see aren't leaves, but leafless stems which apparently become less tightly coiled as the plant ages.
The nursery referred to it as a bog plant which isn't strictly accurate because, while bogs and marshes are both a type of wetland environment, bogs are very low in nutrients (hence the evolution of North American carnivorous plants like Sarracenia and Dionaea which derive much of their nutrients from capturing and digesting insects) while marshes are nutrient-rich and support a wider variety of plants than bogs. Distinguishing between "bog plants" and "marsh plants" may sound silly, but it makes a significant difference when it comes to raising a particular plant in cultivation in terms of how you need to water them and what kind of water you can use, how you feed them and what substrate they can grow in. The best way to grow beautiful, healthy plants at home is to mimic its natural habitat as closely as you can.

Another Kusamono made up for a new pot, this one by Stone Monkey. I love this pot with the green glaze in the rim. I wanted to plant something that would allow this to be seen but still match the planting.
I opted to go for a cool feel to the planting using light greens in the foliage to link in with the pot colours. I added a Sisrinchium to add just a splash of darker colour but still…
