Hi Gary,
I don't have Cyperus papyrus, which is likely the one that you'd prefer to find,
I only have it's "poor relative" Cyperus alternifolius, let me know if that interests you.

Papryus


Hi
Sounds good.........does it live in water?
What would you like to receive in return?

Talk soon
Gary

Gary, I have a clump of the Cyperus papyrus. Let me know if you want that variety and I will try to dig some up for you.

I have the same kind Zuzu has.


I love it. It is growing little by little and is turning into the cutest little bush. When the center of the leafs are left in water upside down, they grow new little plantlets. I looked at the kind Gone_tropical has and it is also very nice. You will have quite a pretty pond Gardenguy!
