Add Your Opinion About This Plant
I have two varieties. One with a slightly curling stem-like leaf and another with a distict spiraling stem-like leaf called "Unicorn". Both winter out in the fish pond or have been house plants. The shower "Unicorn" has been an office plant in a very well lit room, and in my small "breezeway" as a house plant with windows on two walls. It grows well planted in a pot that is dropped into water, making it pretty much "water and forget it". In mild winter areas and in the house it is evergreen. This last winter my outdoor one was frozen back and I had to cut it back to start fresh.

I grew 'Twister' in a pot in shade, not realizing that it wanted wet feet. It got watered when I remembered, but we had a wet summer. It did OK, but didn't grow too big. Not sure if I want to leave it out all winter so it will probably become a house plant for the winter.
