Schoenoplectus species may be planted from bare root stock or seedlings from container stalk or directly seeded into the soil. Germination problems have been reported in the literature for S. acutus. Consequently, live plant collections of this species are recommended. Bare rootstock or seedlings are preferred revegetation methods where there is
