Bristle-leaf Sedge, Ivory Sedge

Carex eburnea

Bristle-leaf Sedge is the finest-textured native sedge available, its thread-like blades form soft, delicate clumps that are more reminiscent of a moss than a grass, thriving in dry shade conditions that defeat almost every other fine-textured groundcover.

  • Thread-like blades form a small, delicate, rounded clump with an unusually soft and refined texture
  • Tolerates dry shade, a very challenging combination that limits most groundcover options
  • Native to North America, ecological value for native wildlife and pollinators
