Eriophorum Angustifolium
Cotton Grass

Height: Medium

Planting Zone: 1 - 2


A lovely British bog and shallow water plant forming neat clumps of rush-like foliage and numerous erect white-tufted heads of ‘┬Ç┬ÿcotton balls’┬Ç┬Ö. The heads are sometimes used in country districts for making candle wicks. Plant in moist conditions by the pond or in the bog garden, or plant in a medium container in the shallow margins of the pond. Use aquatic soil and top with pea gravel.
