New division had to be trimmed first, so it doesn’t lose too much nutrients trying to keep the green parts alive. Hopefully I didn’t damage the roots too much in the process. I used concrete mixing tub – it’s strong enough so it won’t break when filled with water and large enough to accommodate the division. I dragged it into the large plastic container without drainage holes. Rhizomes are thick and hard to break using a shovel, so I had quite an exercise getting it out of the waterlogged soil. If it can survive the winter outside, I’ll have one less plant to worry about next winter. I intend to keep most of it outside, covered with layer of dry grass, branches and straw, and large sheet of PVC above that to insulate the roots from winter cold as much as possible. Some say, that with a lot of protection, Papyrus can handle the winter if it gets protected from freezing temperatures. I saved some seeds, just in case I end up losing the mature plant. This summer it grew a lot, even with a lot lower temperatures than usual with abundance of rain. If grown from seed, it doesn’t get large enough the first growing season and I really need to save it. After first frost that did no damage to it, I decided to take a division and take it into protected place in the basement. Papyrus waiting to be saved Cyperus Papyrus “King Tut” is only hardy to a bit below freezing and even that only for a short time.
