A beautiful sedge that forms a non-invasive dense clump of narrow, weeping blue grass-like foliage. Short flower spikes appear late in Spring but do not detract from the striking foliage colour. Great mass planted around ponds and water features as it tolerates boggy sites and aids erosion control. Very versatile as this Carex is also drought tolerant. Grows approx. 20cm tall x 30cm wide.
