Gray's Sedge

Prefers moist soil and full sun. The leaves are mostly evergreen. Propagation is through seeding in the fall and division in the spring. Under suitable conditions, this sedge may self-seed. The greenish yellow to brown seed heads of this sedge look like spiked clubs and remain on the plant in winter. The seeds float, allowing them to establish in new areas within a wetland. May not reach full height in hot climates and dry soil. Cut back in late winter or early spring. Notes: Attracts insects and butterflies. Food source for waterfowl and gamebirds.
