Planting and Care Guide

Planting Tips

Plant in moist to average, well-drained soil. Tolerates a range of soil types including clay. Space 12–18 inches apart. Water thoroughly after planting.

Care Tips

Water regularly after planting; once established it has reasonable drought tolerance, especially in partial shade. Trim or mow the planting to a few inches in early spring to remove old foliage before fresh new growth emerges. No fertilization needed. Divide clumps every 4–5 years if desired. Essentially pest- and disease-free. A tough, low-maintenance native sedge well suited to naturalizing shaded or partially shaded areas.
