Typha orientalis, Raupo, Raupo Plant, Raupō

Typha orientalis, commonly known as Raupo, is a vigorous and erect, NZ native grass. It is found throughout New Zealand in shallow, fertile waters such as sheltered lakes and swamps and will grow in water up to one metre deep. Plants will typically grow to 2.5 m tall and 1 m wide, but will quickly colonise larger areas as the roots spread. Typha orientalis is commonly used in wetland and riparian plantings but is also now being included in modern gardens where it is used in borders and mixed plantings.
