One of the best sedges for rain gardens, Fox Sedge can handle temporary flooding and periods of dryness. It forms dense clumps with fine, mounding leaves. Every sunny rain garden needs some Fox Sedge scattered throughout. In large rain gardens, Fox Sedge can form a groundcover when planted throughout a garden, either alone or among flowers.
