Carex FEATHER FALLS™ ('ET CRX01' PP26199)

Common Name: Variegated Sedge, Ornamental Grass

A relatively new plant to North America, this sedge has been taking the market by storm with its popularity. Its claim to fame is its hybrid vigor that stays attractive all season. Narrow variegated leaves have dark green centers and cream margins that forms a very long and arching habit. The cascading habit is perfect for a container-in the ground, it will have a wider habit as the leaves will spread outward. From Exceptio.

FEATHER FALLS™ is an evergreen variety that performs best in light to partial shade and rich soil with dry to average moisture. It tends to suffer in extreme heat. In northern climates, it should be sited out of the way of winter winds and provided with some protection such as snow or straw. If plants look tattered in early spring, cut them back to the ground. The new foliage will quickly fill back in.
