Cyperus papyrus 'King Tut'

Papyrus

Plant Type: Annual

'King Tut' produces tall green stalks that are topped with delicate light green fronds that look like small palm trees. It is a fast grower that will quickly fill out and reach its full height before the season is over. It is an eye-catching addition to containers as a sure-fire "thriller" where its form can be fully appreciated. It also is a water plant and can thrive in submerged containers in water features or in the ground in areas that stay moist.
