Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Evergreen fountain of thin foliage that cascades and curves earthward. This architectural sedge will thrive in sun or shade and prefers moist, well-drained soil. Love it in a tall pot where it can strut its stuff, as a foundation in borders, an exemplary filler. About 12" tall and twice as wide. Let the 'green arches' live in your garden!
