Pennsylvania Sedge Grass

Carex Pensylvanica Plants for Sale Online

Carex Pensylvanica or Pennsylvania Sedge is a grass-like perennial that forms a tight fountain-like habit and adds texture to your landscape.

This hardy sedge is bright green during the spring and summer and remains semi-evergreen in mild winter climates. Thriving in sun or shade, Carex pensylvanica is a creeping plant that will spread up to 8 inches a year, covering your lawn to give it the traditional grassy lawn look.

Ornamental grasses or ground cover plants are low maintenance perennials that are perfect for areas of your yard where grass is not wanted.

It is not evergreen in the Maryland area, although some foliage color will persist through the winter. It looks great grouped in the woodland garden or border or when used to edge a woodland path. It can also be grown in low spots or along ponds or streams but is equally at home in the rock garden or spilling over a rocky slope.
