Crushed Ice Sagittaria (Sagittaria graminea 'Crushed Ice')

Crushed Ice Sagittaria (Sagittaria graminea 'Crushed Ice')

Crushed Ice Sagittaria has highly variegated creamy white and green foliage. Spikes of white flower clusters with bright yellow centers (similar to other types of arrowhead) accent the foliage during the summer months. The foliage is not arrowhead shaped, but is a lance-leaf style. Multiplies by underground runners, and tubers in winter. Cultivated mutation of US native.

Hardiness Zone: 5-11
Planting Container: We recommend a 10" x 6" fabric pot to grow a regular sized plant, or a 12.5" x 7" or 15" x 6" fabric pot to grow a specimen sized plant. Click on any fabric pot link to read about why fabric pots work better than hard plastic pots!
Light Requirements: full sun to part shade
Height: 12" to 18" - Spread: 12"
Water Depth: Moist or water up to 12" deep (Maximum water depth is for mature bog plants)

FERTILIZING: For best health and growth, we recommend fertilizing regularly (unless using the plants in a plant filtration system!). Use Pondtabbs 20 count, 60 count, or 300 count for fast release, or Aquascape 6 count or 12 count capsules for slow release (once a year) fertilizing. Aquascape is preferred for low maintenance, but Pondtabbs are useful in Spring when Aquascape is slow to start in low temperatures. Pondtabbs are also useful for a quick extra nutrient push for extra bloom, and for mid-summer fertilizing of a new plant (we don't recommend using slow release fertilizer in mid-summer or later in cold climates, as plants should run out of fertilizer at the end of the year to encourage dormancy in cold climates).

Plants are shipped bare root or in starter pots, and will require planting upon arrival. For in depth planting and care instructions visit our Planting and Care Instructions for Shallow Water and Bog Plants.
