Phalaris aquatica aka Bulbous Canary Grass

Even if you don't have a green thumb, you can successfully care for Bulbous Canary Grass due to its easy-going nature.

Bulbous Canary Grass should be watered regularly, allowing the soil to dry out between waterings.

To ensure the health of your Bulbous Canary Grass, it's crucial to use a potting soil that won't hold too much moisture. A soil that drains well and contains perlite or vermiculite for drainage and organic matter for nutrition is ideal. Adding a few handfuls of perlite to store-bought cactus soil is an easy way to create this type of soil mix.

To ensure optimal growth, the Bulbous Canary Grass prefers bright diffused light for 6-8 hours each day. Insufficient light can result in slow growth and leaf drop, so it's important to find a well-lit location for this plant. Place it near a window, within a distance of 1 meter (3 feet), to enhance its potential for thriving.
