Even moisture will be a safer bet though. When planted in the garden it will best to keep even moisture, although we have had some reports of well-established King Tut ® plants doing surprisingly well with dry conditions. However, he can also be used in regular garden beds. If you are looking for a large, dramatic plant to use in your pond or other water feature King Tut ® is an excellent choice. King Tut ® will also perform well when planted in the landscape. When planted in a combination use a pot with drainage holes and maintain normal moisture. If you are using him in a combination, make sure you are using a large pot (two feet across or more), he will have a tendency to crowd out other plants if he isn't given enough space to grow. King Tut ® will also work well in large combination planters. He's a dramatic plant to add to any garden. As you can see, he grows very fast, easily reaching six feet or more in a single season. The photo below and to the right shows it in September, four months later. I used a galvanized metal bushel basket as the pot. The photo at left is one month after planting a 4.25 inch pot of King Tut ®. While doing fine in normal moisture, he is a water lover and I see no reason not to give him a watery environment if he is planted by himself. If you are going to plant him in a container by himself I suggest using a container with no drainage holes or plugging existing drainage holes. If there's a child in your life you would like to get interested in gardening I think King Tut ® would be a great plant to use. Seuss would have created or something from the time of the dinosaurs. It would be hard not to be enchanted with Cyperus Graceful Grasses ® King Tut ®, after all what's not to love? To me King Tut ® looks like a plant that Dr. I've grown them all (most of them repeatedly) and love them! They were chosen to be heat tolerant, to need limited to no supplemental water and to be easy to care for with no deadheading needed. Whatever you call them, these 10 plants should be great in landscapes in almost any climate.

I really wanted to call this series of articles '10 Plants Every Gardener Should Try in the Landscape,' but this seemed a bit long for a title.
