Cyperus
Genus of about 500-600 species of sedge- or grass-like annuals and evergreen, rhizomatous perennials, found exlusively in wet habitats throughout tropical and subtropical areas, with a small number in cool-temoerate regions. Cyperus (Umbrella Plant) is semi-aquatic and requires a very moist soil and a medium light exposure. The plant is often grown with the pot standing in a container of water. Do not expose the Umbrella Plant to temperatures below 55 degrees. When repotting is needed, do it in March.
