Sparganium erectum (Branched bur-reed) - Marginal Pond Plants - MP112 Bulk

Sparganium erectum, commonly known as branched bur-reed, is a tall, clump-forming marginal aquatic perennial with upright, strap-like green leaves that rise above the water, providing strong vertical structure along pond edges and in shallow wetlands. In summer it produces distinctive spherical clusters of greenish-yellow flowers held above the foliage, adding architectural interest to naturalistic water plantings. This species thrives in shallow water or consistently moist soil and provides ecological value by supporting insects and wetland wildlife. Its vigorous, upright habit and tolerance of waterlogged conditions make it ideal for pond margins, lakesides, and wildlife-focused planting schemes.
