i grew a whole tray ful of carex flag on a clay bank in the driest part of auckland region, amongst overgrown ryegrass etc and they thriveď. After the fist year you can finally start to see some of them getting big enough to notice among the surrounding grass. A perfect grass to interplant between native shrubs and trees to reduce weeds.
