Excellent for gardens with difficult to identify light conditions (moving shade/sun during the day).

But grows well in full sun to full shade.

Spent flowers tend to be somewhat floppy.

Moisture Needs: average (medium), medium-dry to seasonally dry, medium-wet to wet, established plants are drought tolerant
Origin: widespread sedge, common in Central and Eastern USA and Canada, found in both disturbed and good quality habitats. Upland woods, woodland openings, savanna, prairies, thickets, along rivers, moist woods, see the BONAP distribution map

Black walnut tolerance: yes
Deer/Rabbit Resistant: yes / yes
Attracts Butterflies or Pollinators: yes
Attracts Hummingbirds: no
Pot Size: square 3.5" x 4" deep pot

Picture copyright: Mt. Cuba

Plant combinations: Very universal use in areas with some shade during the day. In masses or bigger groups, as a ground covering perennial, or substitute it in lawns in difficult spots. Some great perennial companions are Aquilegia canadensis, Asarum, Aster divaricatus, Brunnera, Dicentra, Epimedium, Helleborus, Heuchera, Hostas, Phlox divaricata, Persicaria, Primula, ferns, fine-leaved sedges, spring ephemerals, bulbs and many others.
