Ivory Sedge (Carex eburnea) 12-pack of plugs
***12-pack MINIMUM ORDER***: If ordering 12-packs, you must order *at least six 12-packs*. You can mix and match 12-packs of different species.
One of the shortest sedges or grasses for shade, Ivory Sedge grows only 8 inches tall. It has beautiful fine foliage. Great for planting along sidewalks, in-between stone pavers, in rock gardens, and among woodland flowers. The compact clumps of Ivory Sedge spread slowly to create a soft groundcover.
You’ll need quite a few Ivory Sedge plants to fill spaces if you want a groundcover within a few years. If you plant them every 8 inches, that means two plants per square foot. For example, if it’s a 5ft x 5ft space you want filled, you’ll need 50 plants (25sq ft x 2 plants per sq ft = 50 plants total). The pictures of Ivory Sedge with the benches have around 200-300 Ivory Sedge plants in them.
