I have long been in love with the looks of this plant. Am thinking about either buying a few or growing them from seed. But I hesitate because all the research I have done emphasizes boggy ground or other references to watery environment.
Would there be any way to grow papyrus in a So. Calif coastal garden which doesn't get much rain even in "winter".
IOW, would I have to create a special water environment for the plants? Would it take too much hassle/water/worry?
I think several regulars live in more or less similar climates. Would value your opinions.
