  • Question

    I'm interested in planting a native variety of scouring rush in a shady area of my yard here in Arlington MA. Is there a place I could buy some in the area? Under what sort of conditions and in what soils would they best grow?

    Answer

    Dear willjburton, there is a place that sells scouring-rushes called Fourth Generation Nursery (http://www.fgnsales.com/aq_native_aquatic_plants.html). You might contact them for pricing and availability. Good luck.
