Juncus Spiralis, Ready to Plant in Your Garden, 2L Pot

Architectural evergreen with striking corkscrew foliage, adding bold texture & contemporary structure to gardens and containers.

Juncus spiralis, commonly known as Corkscrew Rush, is a unique evergreen marginal plant prized for its twisted, spiralling green stems that create sculptural interest all year round. The glossy, upright coils form a dense clump, bringing movement and texture to water features, patio containers and modern planting schemes. In summer, small brown flower clusters may appear along the stems, though it is primarily grown for its dramatic foliage form. Typically reaching around 30–45cm tall with a similar spread, it makes an excellent statement plant for pots, pond edges, gravel gardens or mixed architectural displays.

Supplied as a strong, well-established 17cm (2L) pot-grown plant, this is a healthy, garden-ready specimen with a developing root system prepared for steady establishment. Professionally grown in peat-free compost at our UK nursery in Yorkshire and delivered in plastic-free packaging, it offers a sustainable way to introduce bold form and low-maintenance structure into your outdoor space.
