Description

Bog Bean (Menyanthes trifoliata) grows from a horizontal rhizome and produces alternate trifoliate leaves that float or rise above wet soils. Its upright racemes display buds in soft rose-pink, opening into striking white flowers that resemble delicate stars, each petal fringed with fine white whiskers. The plant thrives in bogs, fens, and shallow water, adding both texture and elegance to wetland habitats. It also attracts pollinators, supporting biodiversity in marshy areas.

Our Bog Bean plug plants for sale are priced per plant. This product has a minimum quantity of 10 plug plants. For orders over 500 plug plants please contact us.

All our plants are native British wildflowers grown in Peat-free compost in our sustainable nursery.
