This award-winning sedge is a spreading groundcover that grows at a moderate pace to form a dense patch of 1/2" wide, dark green leaves with bright white edges that are evergreen in most climates. Its bright variegation lights up shady spots in the garden and in containers. Tolerates a wide range of growing conditions.
This popular native sedge has seen high demand due to its tolerance of drier soils than most species. It forms a soft, sweeping carpet of finely textured, semi-evergreen foliage that is peppered with small, tan inflorescences. It spreads slowly to form a no-mow lawn alternative or groundcover in shady spots.
This native woodland sedge is easy to grow in wet or dry soils along the edge of a border, pond or rain garden. It can also be planted en masse on hillsides or under trees; more shade tolerant than C. pensylvanica. Star-shaped, greenish yellow seed clusters appear above the finely textured, densely mounded foliage. Evergreen in most climates.
