Description
Bowles' Golden Sedge is a striking ornamental grass that brightens Massachusetts landscapes with its fine, golden-yellow foliage edged in green. Its arching, grassy blades bring elegance to bog gardens, moist borders, and container plantings. This moisture-loving plant is especially useful in low-lying or poorly drained areas where other plants may struggle.
With its cascading habit and subtle tan seed heads in late summer, Bowles' Golden Sedge provides multi-season interest. It’s low maintenance, needing only a spring trim, and works beautifully in mass plantings or as a soft edging accent. Bowles' Golden Sedge thrives in the New England climate, adding color and texture to damp or shady garden spots.
