Description Fine Print
 
With its tough disposition and rhizomatous spreading habit, Carex pensylvanica makes an excellent semi-evergreen shade ground cover and lawn alternative. Its fine texture and fountaining habit give this sedge a soft appearance that is lovely as an underplanting for bolder shade perennials or on its own as a shade lawn. Tolerant of dry shade and sunnier positions if provided adequate moisture.
