Carex 'Silver Sceptre' Sedge

 

'Silver Sceptre' has vivid half inch wide green leaves with a silver edge. It produces a soft and spreading clump to brighten the shade garden.

Carex, otherwise known as sedge, is a large genus of perennial grass like plants that find a home in almost every exposure and soil type. Native and horticultural selections are invaluable garden plants and deserve wider use in masses, in drifts, and as a ground cover. Carex is also a fine choice in pots and urns. Use as you would Liriope, Ajuga, or ivy. Kelly Nursery offers sedges for a wide variety of cultural conditions and uses. Cutback Carex in spring before new growth starts.
