Details: Carex appalachica if you are looking for a real texture contrast & a plant that will thrive in partial to full shade, Appalachian sedge may be the answer. All sedges love shade but many are much stiffer & with wider bladed foliage than appalachica. Its foliage is very thin, long, & wispy, creating a much lighter texture & a flowing, almost mop-like look that is very attractive. This American beauties sedge does not have the showy bloom that other Carex display but its somewhat insignificant bloom still provides nectar for important native insects & seed for Native birds, while its flowing form is sure to add luster to any Woodland setting in your landscape. Grow tips thrives in part sun to full shade & moist to average soil.
