Hi! I just picked up a corkscrew rush, being captivated by it's unique curls. I would like to have it in my container garden. I don't have a pond. I know these plants are bog plants and need a lot of water. I have a nice white and blue ceramic pot (no drainage) I'd like to put it in...but I was wondering if I should plant it directly in the pot with aquatic soil....or put it in a smaller pot with drainage inside the bigger pot and put rocks and water in the bigger pot? Does this make sense? The ceramic pot is about 10" wide and 6" deep. Thanks!
All it needs is to be kept moist, look at the situation it came in when you bought it - the production nursery probably did not have it sitting in water, even if you bought it out of a pond display at the retail outlet.
