How to keep Juncus Foliosus.
Light
Sharp-flowered rush is found in habitats with abundant sunlight, for example the shallow margins of ponds and lakes. It favors full sun but can also tolerate partial sun.
Temperature
Sharp-flowered rush can tolerate a wide range of temperatures, but its distribution may still be restricted by different combinations of moisture and heat. It performs best in warm summer climates with adequate rainfall or irrigation. Extended periods of cloudy, rainy weather or prolonged high temperatures can increase the risk of Sharp-flowered rush dying. In winter, protecting the plant from cold can improve its chances of survival.
