Growing Tips & Maintenance

  • This sedge likes full sun to filtered shade in a moist, well-drained soil. It will contrast well with other grasses, especially those with blue foliage. Seldom needs dividing.
Note

Additional Notes

  • Cool Season Grasses: These grasses do the majority of their growing in early spring and start again when temperatures start to cool in the fall. During the warmer summer months, they stop growing and some will even go dormant. Cool season grasses flower in the spring or early summer. Most cool season grasses grow best in a consistently moist soil.
