Spring Hill Nurseries Feather Falls Sedge

This plant thrives in partial to full shade. While it prefers darker corners, it can tolerate some morning sun, but you should avoid harsh afternoon exposure to prevent the foliage from scorching.

You can expect Feather Falls Sedge to reach a mature height of 12 to 18 inches. Its cascading habit makes it look fuller as it grows, so give it enough space in containers or garden beds to drape properly.

It is an excellent choice for both. Its cascading, variegated foliage is specifically well-suited for hanging baskets and window boxes, where the leaves can drape over the edges for a dramatic effect.

Shipping in a dormant state means the plant is resting and not actively growing foliage, which helps it handle the stress of transit better. Once planted in the ground or a container, it will establish roots and begin its normal growth cycle as the season warms.

Feather Falls Sedge is hardy in zones 5 through 9. If you live within these zones, it should return reliably each spring, though you may want to provide a layer of mulch for protection if you are at the colder end of that range.
