Growing and Maintenance Tips:

Cattails grow best in shallow water along pond edges or in swamps. They provide cover and food for wildlife. Roots can go deep, and become difficult to remove. If planting in small ponds, a root restrainer may be necessary. Typha latifolia 'Variegata' is not as aggressive as the species.
