Pruning
The yellow spikerush, an aquatic perennial, thrives when carefully pruned in early spring. Focus on removing overgrown or dead stems to stimulate vigorous growth. Making clean cuts helps prevent disease, while regular thinning improves air circulation and light penetration. These practices are essential for maintaining the plant's health and enhancing its aesthetics in its aquatic environment.
