Carex vulpinoidea

$4.00

Fox Sedge forms dense, arching clumps of bright green, fine-textured foliage that brings softness and flow to your landscape. In early summer, it sends up clusters of narrow, brush-like brown seed heads, reminiscent of a fox’s tail — giving the plant its name. These spiky, upright flowers add subtle visual interest and feed wildlife through the season.
