Bareroot | Eleocharis acicularis | Least Spikerush | Wetland Restoration

Description: Still trying to find the perfect aquatic landscaping solution? Look no further! Eleocharis acicularis, aka Least Spikerush, is right here and ready to help you out of your aquatic woes! Growing naturally around our area, these Bareroots are freshly dug with each order, giving you a grass-like clump every time. Perfect for shallow water irrigation, this plant is only 15 cm in height (with some as short as bogs!). All it needs is a little flat-overlapping of its bracts to reveal deliciously tiny flowers of less than 5 mm in diameter. Not to mention those sharp little spikes that make Least Spikerush so appealing. This modern-day marvel of nature is a perennial plant with smooth, round stems that come together to form an oval spike flower at the tips. Ready for its closeup? Just under 1' tall, Eleocharis acicularis can be grown individually or in tight clusters like an underwater turf that’s ankle deep. It’ll add a touch of personality and depth to any body of water, but it’s also quite practical: pioneering wetland species don't come more rugged than Eleocharis acicularis – it’s able to bear fluctuations in water levels like a champ – so if you have situations of large draw downs happening around your ponds or basins now and then, you won't have nothing to worry about!
