Eastern Star Sedge 2 Gallon

Carex radiata

Eastern Star sedge develops evergreen clumps of narrow green foliage. Very short rhizomes. Produces spiky yellow flowers and seed heads starting in May. Plant in moist soil, tolerates full sun as long as soil is wet, and can grow in 3-4 inches of standing water. Water well after planting; maintain 1" of water, once a week the first year. Use slow release fertilizer in spring or at planting. Mulch 1-2" to suppress weeds and retain soil moisture. In general, cut ornamental grasses down as low as possible in late winter.
