Klaus Alexander Seistrup🤸 It's alive! 🎉<br><br><span class="h-card"><a class="u-url mention" href="https://a.gup.pe/u/plants" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>plants</span></a></span>, please meet my Cyperus alternifolius (syn.: C. flabelliformis) that has survived its fourth winter outside in Denmark. I actually thought it was dead after the winter this year, and had started contemplating what else to plant in that corner, but today I noticed three strong shoots (of which two are seen on the attached photo). Yay!<br><br>The previous four summers it has grown to 175+ cm during the growth season, only to have all greenery killed by frost during the winter.<br><br>See parent post for how the papyrus ended up outside in the first place.<br><br>/cc [ <a class="hashtag" href="https://magnetic-ink.dk/tag/cyperus" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Cyperus</a> | <a class="hashtag" href="https://magnetic-ink.dk/tag/cyperaceae" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Cyperaceae</a> | <a class="hashtag" href="https://magnetic-ink.dk/tag/papyrus" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#papyrus</a> | <a class="hashtag" href="https://magnetic-ink.dk/tag/sedge" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#sedge</a> | <a class="hashtag" href="https://magnetic-ink.dk/tag/gardening" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#gardening</a> ]

John Dal<p>Another small thing. It's an idea for a font if there are any font designers watching. This is the triangular section of a Brown Sedge stem.
