Carex comosa (Longhair Sedge)

Carex comosa, commonly known as Longhair Sedge, is a perennial grass that forms dense clumps of narrow, arching, dark green leaves. The foliage has a striking bottle brush or bristly appearance, which gives the plant its common names. This sedge produces inconspicuous flowers that give way to small, brown seedheads, adding texture to the garden. Longhair sedge is an excellent choice for wet or boggy areas and provides habitat for wildlife.
