Design Tips

Pennsylvania Sedge is one of the most common groundcovers in pristine Midwest forests. Pennsylvania Sedge (Carex pensylvanica) spreads about 6-9″ per year to form a dense groundcover. In sunny situations it doesn’t spread as much and in shady conditions it can be planted with other shade flowers to create a mixed groundcover.

Great native plant choice for the Minnesota Lawns to Legumes grant program!
