Summer planting
Contrary to popular opinion, summer planting is fine as long as adequate water is provided throughout any prolonged dry periods. This allows you to take advantage of increased summer growth.
Carex spinirostris
Height: 0.3m;  Spread: 0.4m
Sedge & Rush-like
This Carex is similar to C. dissita but has long narrow brown seed heads and slightly darker green leaves. Very attractive tufted, dark green sedge of high fertility sites in shaded coastal forest.
