Cyperus: Identification, plant Growth and reproduction

Learn about the plant

Cyperus is a genus of around 500-600 species of sedge- or grass-like annuals and evergreen, rhizomatous perennials, found exclusively in moist environments throughout exotic and subtropical locations, having a little variety in great-temperate locations. Cyperus (Umbrella Plant) is semi-water and requires moist dirt as well as moderate light visibility. The vegetation is frequently cultivated using the pot standing upright in the pot water. Usually, do not expose the Umbrella Plant to temps below 55 diplomas. When repotting is essential, undertake it in Mar.

Keep rich compost drenched and reduce free discharge. Misting is essential.

Plant reproduction

Propagation is simply by section, plant seeds, or cuttings made out of terminals.
