How to Propagate Saltmeadow rush?
(Juncus gerardii)
Saltmeadow rush, also known as Saltmarsh rush
A robust perennial of wetlands, saltmeadow rush thrives when propagated through division. This method involves separating dense clumps that form naturally as saltmeadow rush matures. Careful extraction and replanting of sections with roots intact ensure healthy establishment in similar marshy conditions. When dividing, aim to do so during active growth phases, ensuring each new segment has ample foliage to sustain growth while minimizing transplant shock. Post-division, consistent moisture and protection from drying winds facilitate swift root development and adaptability in the new setting.
