{"product_id":"carex-grayi-marginal-pond-plant","title":"Carex grayi Marginal Pond Plant","description":"\u003cp\u003eCarex grayi is a marginal pond plant suited to pond edges and shelves in full sun to part shade. It gives the pond margin upright, green structure through the season and produces spiky seed heads prized for flower arranging. You can choose a single plant or a pack of three, each supplied ready to place in its mesh basket, with no repotting needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCarex grayi is a marginal pond plant grown for its upright clump of leathery green leaves and its unusual, spiky seed heads, which are also cut for flower arranging. It suits pond edges and shelves in full sun to part shade, and gives the pond margin structure and texture through the growing season. Established plants flower between May and August, producing the seed heads the plant is noted for.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCare is straightforward. Once the foliage dies back in autumn, you trim it back to just above the water surface to tidy the plant, which keeps ongoing upkeep to a single seasonal trim.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat you get depends on the option chosen: a single plant in its own mesh aquatic basket, three plants each in their own basket, or one larger plant in a bigger basket. All sizes arrive in their mesh basket, which stays in place at planting, so there is no repotting step before you place the plant in the pond.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe seed heads are the main point of difference from plainer green marginals, since they are valued both for pond planting and for cutting and arranging indoors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSun\/Shade\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFull sun to part shade\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFlowers\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMay to August\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eColour\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGreen\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eGrowth rate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMedium\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCare instructions\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLittle maintenance is required.
