	Carex comans bronco 2 Plug Plants Type: Perennial Soil Type: Widely adaptable Mature Spread: 12 inches Flower Colour: Inconspicuous Mature Form: Clumps - weeping Foliage Colour: Pale Green Growth Rate: Moderate Autumn Color: Silvery Sun Exposure: Partial sun Carex Comans, a native ornamental grass of New Zealand, has slender arching, grassy leaves that grows in a wide clump that resembles a fountain. They are silvery-green and seem to shimmer when blown by a breeze or, if planted in pots, resembles falling water with the leaves draped over the pot. Though it resembles an ornamental grass, it comes from a different family all together, and like many of its fellow sedges, is more versatile than ornamental grasses, being tolerant of both full sun and partial sun and moist to almost-wet soils, and not attractive to deer. Also, once estabished, will even tolerate dry soil. The tiny flowers appear in clusters atop thin stems in mid-summer. The narrow leaves give this plant its common name, hair sedge. They are evergreen in warm climates, perennial in colder climates, where they wither and brown in autumn but nonetheless lend color to the winter garden. Remove the brown leaves in late winter to make way for the new leaves in spring Our Price €1.40 + P&P If you do not wish to use PayPal we will accept cheques, Postal Orders, Cash, Bank Transfer, use the Add To Cart button below for these methods Product Code PP-GRA146
