A stalwart of marshes, streambanks and low areas, Dark Green Bulrush produces attractive brown seed clusters atop sturdy triangular stems. The seed germinates readily, making it an excellent choice for lakeshore restoration, pond construction or rain gardens. Recommended for planting with other wetland flowers, grasses, and rushes, such as those in our Moist Meadow and Rain Garden Prairie Seed Mix. Scirpus atrovirens is a cool-season species, and actively grows during the spring and fall when soil temperatures are cool.
