Variegated Striped Rush is a great upright plant that adds just the right amount of height to any pond. Itโ€™s koi-resistant and non-aggressive, making it a great companion to the rest of your pond life.

The plantโ€™s rigid leaves grow to about 2 to 3 feet tall. Each blade displays beautiful variegation, with a yellow stripe running up the side of each leaf.

Variegated Striped Rush grows small, brownish flowers in the early spring that add just a touch of character without distracting from the gorgeous stiff leaves.

Variegated Striped Rush pairs well with Goldi Creeping Jenny, which complements the rushโ€™s yellow striping, as well as groundcovers like Parrot Feather and Bog Bean.
