Main asset

Very graphic plant, beautiful in vertical pot in contrast with a floor of planks or grooved.

Remarks

Perennial plant with erect striated stems, dark green all year, hollow, topped with brown fructifications in summer for fertile stems. The tuft spreads by suckers, and can become invasive in very humid soils all year round.
