Carex platyphylla (Silver Sedge Grass)

Carex platyphylla stands out as a distinctive clump-forming sedge featuring broad, powder-blue foliage that reaches over an inch in width. This slow-spreading cultivar excels as a textured groundcover in moist to average soil conditions, while demonstrating impressive shade and drought tolerance once established. A spring pruning encourages vigorous new growth and maintains its refined appearance throughout the season.
