PEPYRUS GRASS
Pepyrus plants are sometimes thought of as ornamental grasses but they are not true grasses. A sedge is defined as a grass-like plant with triangular stems and inconspicuous flowers, usually growing in wet areas. Papyrus is a tall, stately plant. Papyrus is primarily a foliage plant and the accompanying bracts (modified leaves) make the umbels pop and give them strong visual appeal. Be aware that this is a fast-growing and spreading plant and is one of many sedges known to impede waterways and encroach on native plants.
Cyperus papyrus (Papyrus Grass) is one of the most attractive aquatic plants since it has tall upright stems and distinctive umbrella-shaped leaves. Papyrus Grass is also popular in landscape design in Dubai because it adds height, texture, and a tropical feel to water gardens, ponds, villa landscaping, including swimming pools, and ornamental gardens. Papyrus also provides a very natural-looking object to place as a modern garden landscape design around the emirates of Dubai and the UAE, and is commonly used as an ornamental garden plant, a component of residential landscaping, and for commercial landscape development/landscape design with a sustainable landscape design. In addition to being a great feature plant within an entire landscaped area, papyrus grass creates an eye-catching and refreshing visual impact in many outdoor spaces.
Papyrus Grass (Cyperus Papyrus) is used frequently as part of a landscape design in Dubai.
