Mountain Sedge
Mountain Sedge is a beautiful, long-lived, fast-growing ornamental grass that will thrive in almost every USDA plant hardiness zone in the contiguous United States. It prefers a spot with partial to full sunshine and fast-draining soil with plentiful organic material.
This plant is a native species across several continents--the mountainous regions of North America, Europe, and Asia. TN Nursery staff often suggest this ornamental plant for gardeners who desire decorative grass with low watering requirements. Whether you live in an area with water usage restrictions or don't have time to keep up--the mountain sedge will work well for you.
Where to Use Mountain Sedge in Your Yard
This ornamental is lovely almost anywhere you want to use it. Remember, it needs little water and partial sunshine. Here are a few usage suggestions:
- ● Rock garden
- ● Near a pond (but not in the mud)
- ● Shade garden
- ● Garden border plantings
- ● Mass plantings
- ● Natural areas
- ● To replace a sloped lawn (it does not require regular cutting)
- ● Pollinator garden
- ● Accent plants
When planting this grass, amend the earth with organic compost, mulch, or shredded leaves; this addition will help reproduce its natural habitat. Gardeners in the colder zones should also add a thick layer of mulch, hay, or straw around the base of the mountain sedge in the fall to insulate it from the wintery cold.
Mountain Sedge Is Easy to Manage
Mountain Sedge is an easy-to-manage size, reaching about eighteen inches tall and twelve inches wide at maturity. If you want to keep it low, you may cut it back--it doesn't mind!
The green leaves are long, thin, and have a soft edge. They form a gently arched shape as they get tall and bend over from their weight. The look is very graceful.
Although they are on the smaller side compared to some ornamental grasses, you can plant them in masses for a more powerful visual impact.
