Hall's Sedge

Carex hallii

Overview

Hall's Sedge (Carex hallii) is a small, clumping perennial grass native to western North America. Growing up to 24 inches tall, it forms spreading tufts of thin, dark green foliage. Its slightly arching, yellow-green flower heads are held peek-a-boo atop the foliage. In late spring each plant produces numerous, distinctive, white anthers which flutter in the breeze. Perfect for growing in wet areas, Hall's Sedge provides an excellent choice for moist, shady woodland gardens. Plus it's a great choice for creating a lasting floral display along stream banks and pond edges.
