(Buchanan's Sedge, Leatherleaf Sedge)
This native of New Zealand is an outstanding foliage plant. Commonly called leatherleaf sedge, it is an evergreen perennial that forms dense, upright to fountain-shaped clumps of fine, coppery foliage. Sun-loving and tough, it prefers average soil that is well drained but evenly moist. It may be planted in containers or mixed with colorful annuals and perennials in the garden.

(Buchanan's Sedge, Leatherleaf Sedge, Red Rooster Sedge)
This is an eye-catching, useful selection of a sedge native to New Zealand. The long, slender leaves grow in a dense, stiff, upright-to-fanlike clump.

Though it much resembles an ornamental grass, it comes from a different family all together, and like many of its fellow sedges, is more versatile than grasses, being tolerant of both full sun and partial sun and moist to almost-wet soils. The tiny flowers...

(Bowles' Golden Sedge, Golden Winged Sedge, Winged Sedge)
Golden winged sedge is an easy to grow clumping plant with chartreuse graceful, arching foliage. Its ability to grow in wet conditions makes it an excellent addition to a poorly drained site.

Sedge grows best in partial sun to shade with moist, acidic soil, but will adapt to normal soil conditions and even grows in shallow water as well as dry...
