Twister ColorGrass® Juncus

Twister is PanAmerican Seed’s ColorGrass selection of Juncus effusus spiralis, commonly called corkscrew rush. The plant’s curly green leaves and upright form give mixed containers a distinctive vertical accent, and it can also grow in wet sites as a pond plant. ## Plant profile The official product page describes Twister as easy to grow, with small, curly green foliage and a compact upright habit. The breeder lists a mature height and width of 12–14 inches, making it suitable for small containers and mixed plantings. ## Growing conditions PanAmerican Seed lists hardiness zones 5a–9b and exposure from partial sun to sun. It also notes that Twister thrives in wet conditions. The selection is promoted for mixed containers and pond plantings; match moisture to the setting and avoid allowing the plant to dry out for extended periods in a water feature. ## Design use Use Twister where its curled foliage can be seen up close, such as a patio pot, mixed planter, or pond edge. Its upright habit adds a contrasting texture beside broad-leaved or mounding plants. The compact size also makes it suitable for smaller garden spaces. ## Source [PanAmerican Seed: ColorGrass® Juncus Twister](https://www.panamseed.com/Products/073906635010041/colorgrass-juncus-twister/) ## Maintenance The breeder describes this selection as easy to grow.
