Product Overview

Dwarf Umbrella Palm (Cyperus alternifolius 'Gracilis')

This smaller variety of the umbrella palm plant that only grows to about 2-3' tall. Bright green parasols of narrow leaves top each stem. As with most cyperus species, it is viviparous and will grow new plants from the junction of the leaf and stem. A nice addition for small water gardens or patio container gardens. Winters over easily as a houseplant in colder regions. One benefit of dwarf umbrella is that it does not form fertile seed, so it will not become a pest in warm winter regions, unlike the regular umbrella palm whose seed will germinate in moist soil.

Hardiness Zone: 8-11
Planting Container: We recommend a 2 gallon solid planting container or a medium planting bag.
Light Requirements: full sun to part shade
Height: 1' to 2' - Spread: 12" Wide
Water Depth: Moist soil or water up to 4" deep (Maximum water depth is for mature bog plants)

    One of the healthiest dwarf palms I have gotten from any vendor. Extremely satisfied with condition of plant received. Should make for a great addition to our fish pond.
