Juncus 'Carmen's Gray'
Juncus 'Carman's Grey' is a distinctive variety of the native California rush, Juncus patens, selected and named by grass expert John Greenlee in honor of nurseryman Ed Carman. This evergreen plant features slender, steel-blue stems reaching up to 22 inches, growing upright without leaning. Its impressive architectural form, spreading about 2 feet wide, offers excellent winter interest and versatile color combinations. Adaptable to regular garden soil, bog environments, or aquatic settings, this clump-forming rush is a valuable addition for diverse planting designs.
