The Dwarf Umbrella Palm is a close cousin of the famous Egyptian papyrus plant. Like papyrus, the Dwarf Umbrella Palm grows in clumps in wet and boggy areas, although it will thrive in drier situations as well. This variety of the Umbrella Palm only grows about 2 feet tall. As with all the Cyperus plants, it is viviparous and will grow new plants from the junction of the leaf and stem.

Few things to remember pertaining to Bare Root plant orders
Damage can occur when plants are left in the sun, or all day on a porch in hot weather. If possible, have them shipped to an address where they can be cared for immediately, or provide special delivery instructions for where a carrier can leave them in the shade. Open the box immediately upon receiving your plants, and put them in a cool shaded spot. Plant ASAP, preferably the same day, keeping them cool and moistened until they are in the pond or in the ground. Roots should be given special attention to prevent drying.
