Appalachian Sedge
Appalachian Sedge (Carex appalachica) is an outstanding choice for use as an attractive grassy groundcover for shade and heavy shade areas. This native grass-like plant with thin, fine-textured leaf blades. Appalachian Sedge is adaptable to a wide range of soils including clay. It needs only moderate moisture but not wet soil like some Carex species. A clumper, space the plants 10 to 12 inches apart to create a swirling carpet of green. Mow it high in early to mid-spring so it will look its best during the growing season. It can be interplanted with other shade-loving woodland wildflowers and flowering bulbs (Daffodils, Hyacinthoides, Scilla and others).
