Potted Plants

Tussock Sedge is active when the soil temps are cool and goes dormant when it's hot. Thriving in wet, shady conditions, Carex stricta spreads its roots through rhizomes, forming lush bunches that can be a little aggressive sometimes. As the plant matures the older leaves turn brown, making way for the emergence of new, vibrant yellow-green shoots. Flowers pop in the spring with reddish brown spikes.

Size options:

-50 cell tray (each cell is 5” deep x 2.25” wide)

-Pot (each pot is 2.5” x 3.5”)

PLANTS MAY BE TRIMMED UPON ARRIVAL. We keep live plants trimmed for the health of the plant, and they may be cut before shipping. This does not harm the plant and actually makes it stronger and ready to grow for you when you receive it.
