This stunning cattail features broad leaves attractively variegated with bold longitudinal creamy-white or yellowish stripes, providing a dramatic visual impact and brightening pond margins.
It produces the typical dense, brown, sausage-shaped seed heads in summer, offering the familiar cattail silhouette but with an ornamental foliage twist. It is beneficial for wildlife, though its primary appeal is visual.
While still a strong grower, it's generally considered less vigorous and aggressive in its spread than the non-variegated species, making it more suitable for ornamental ponds. Hardy and low maintenance.
Grow in full sun to partial shade (best variegation in full sun) in shallow water up to 6 inches (15cm) deep or boggy soil. A fantastic architectural accent plant for medium to large ponds.
