not sure I spelled that right. These are also called Montbretia, right? Are they a bulb or just thick roots? I think someone sent me some or possibly some dwarf cattails and used their real name instead of including their on-line name so i don't know which is which....

They are small bulbs. :}
I hope that means what I have here are the dwarf cattails, then. Anyway I'm gonna go ahead and put them in the pond
I received crocomansia seeds in the mail so now I know for sure that the plants I got ARE the dwarf cattails
they grow from corms but I'm not sure about putting them in your pond.

The seeds are different from the corms. Wish I had had corms to spare to send with the seeds!
Picked a load up by taking the dog for a walk through our local woods, and this is where the local gardeners throw their garden rubbish and i picked up a pile of them besides other plants. Sheila in NW England
Do cattails grow from corms? I thought they grew from the seeds when they turn to fluff at the top.
NO, I've just confused everyone because I got some seeds and some bulbs and didn't which was which. I'm straight now; thanks zanymuse
LOL You sound like me! I used to live in California but have been spending most of my time in the state of Confusion!
