Key Features
This versatile sedge grass adapts to various garden conditions, making it an excellent choice for borders, edging, and mass planting. The distinctive variegated foliage features creamy-white edges that contrast beautifully with dark green centers, creating visual interest throughout all seasons.
Growth and Care Requirements
Carex morrowii 'Ice Dance' grows to a mature height of 20-30 cm, forming dense clumps that effectively suppress weeds. The plants establish quickly and spread gradually to create a continuous carpet of foliage. This ornamental grass tolerates a wide range of light conditions, from full sun to partial shade, and adapts to most soil types with adequate drainage.
Maintenance is minimal - simply prune back old foliage in late February before new growth emerges. This annual trim keeps the plants looking fresh and encourages vigorous spring growth. The evergreen nature ensures your garden maintains structure and color even during winter months.

This offering includes 24 individual plants, each supplied in a 9cm diameter growing pot at a height of 10-25cm. This quantity is ideal for creating substantial ground cover areas, filling garden beds, or establishing borders. When planted with appropriate spacing, these 24 plants will quickly establish to form an attractive, cohesive display.
Planting and Establishment
