Cyperus Helferi

Cyperus helferi is one of the few true sedges that thrives fully submerged, sending up long, wavy, grass-like blades that sway gracefully in the current. Its fine, translucent-green leaves add movement and a soft vertical texture to the midground. It appreciates good light and CO2 to stay compact and healthy.
