Description
Hippuris vulgaris is a hardy British native and a superb oxygenating aquatic. The fascinating upright stems of evergreen foliage emerge from the water surface like little bottle brushes. Common Mare's Tail will happily spread in boggy soil or submerged in the margins of ponds. This attractive perennial is a useful addition to ponds, both improving the water quality and providing excellent cover for wildlife. Height and spread: 30cm (12"). Planting depth: Zones 1 & 2 to 15cm (6") below water level.

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

How to Grow

More Info
Common Mare’s Tail requires virtually no maintenance. Remove excess growth to prevent its spread when necessary.
