How to Care

Easily grown in rich wet loams in full sun to part shade. Will grow in shallow water or wet, boggy soils. In water gardens, plant in containers set in no more than 6 of water. May be planted directly in the muddy shallows of ponds or pools. Spreads by rhizomes, but is more restrained than most larger species of cattail. May self-seed.
Root system may puncture pond liners.
Do not trim foliage of Typha minima in Autumn - wait till new growth starts in Spring. Allow plant to remain congested in its basket for more bulrush heads.
