Carex oshimensis 'EverColor® Everlite'

Sedge

Plant Type: Ornamental Grass

'Everlite' is a clump forming sedge with a graceful weeping habit and thin leaves that are white with green stripes at the edges. It thrives in shadier conditions, ranging from full shade to partial sun and requires consistent moisture. It instantly adds texture and movement to containers, where it can be tucked in to the edges and used as a "filler/spiller," and beds and borders. Its shade tolerance also makes it a good choice for woodland gardens and it looks great when planted in large groupings. Its evergreen foliage provides multiseasonal interest and it is overall a well-behaved and low maintanence plant.
