Plant Description
Umbrella Palm (Cyperus alternifolius) is a moisture-loving plant known for its umbrella-like clusters of slender, green stems topped with radiating leaves. Native to wetlands and marshes, it thrives in moist soil or shallow water in full sun to partial shade. With its architectural form and ability to filter water, it is ideal for ponds, water gardens, and indoor containers where its striking appearance and natural filtration benefits can be enjoyed year-round.
Plant Care
Watering
Water your plant once a week or when the soil starts to feel slightly dry on the surface. Keep the soil consistently moist, but be careful not to overwater, as this can cause brown spots and leaf drop. If the leaves become curly or dry, it's a sign that the plant needs water. It's best to water your plant in the early morning or late evening when the temperatures are cooler. Always check the soil before watering.
Light
Provide bright indoor light or indirect sunlight for about 6 to 8 hours a day.
Temperature
Maintain temperatures between 18°C and 24°C. Avoid exposing the plant to drafts, as these can cause undesirable temperature fluctuations. Mist the plant occasionally, about twice a week, to help maintain optimal humidity levels.
Fertilizer
Apply liquid fertiliser every 15 days when the plant is actively growing. For best results, use Folikraft ready-to-use Indoor Plant Food.
