Carex dolichostachya ‘Kaga Nishiki’

MN Native plant Sedge, Gold Fountains

Narrow, gold margins on slender, arching, bright green blades in a dense, symmetrical, fountain-like foliage clump. A wonderful selection for brightening shady, woodland borders and rock gardens. Plant en-masse as a groundcover or sweeping border. Thrives in moist soils; tolerates shallow water at the edge of ponds. Blades stay evergreen through the winter. Great substitute for Carex ‘Bowles Golden’.
