The plant is native to West Africa, Madagascar and the Arabian Peninsula, but widely distributed throughout the world.[1] It has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.[2][3] The subspecies Cyperus alternifolius ssp. flabelliformis is also known as Cyperus involucratus Шаблон:Small.[4]

Cultivation

Cyperus alternifolius is frequently cultivated as an ornamental plant worldwide. It is planted in gardens in the ground, pots, in ponds, and as a houseplant. It is not hardy, and requires protection when temperatures fall below Шаблон:Convert[2] (USDA Zones: 9a–11b).[5] It is propagated by dividing the roots and requires copious amounts of water.[6] The cultivar Cyperus alternifolius 'Variegatus' is grown for its variegated foliage and smaller size.[7]
