Flower for the Day Bristle Leaf Sedge 10-22-2020




Bristle leaf sedge (Carex eburnea) is a native grass which grows well in the shade even in poor soil.
It is also called ivory sedge and ebony sedge. Soft, thread-like, green leaves form a porcupine-like clump  6-10" tall and as wide. Whitish-green flowers on spikes in spring are insignificant. 

I like its delicate look and feel. This plant is two years old.
