Carex Feather Falls 200MM

Carex oshimensis 'Feather Falls'

I am Carex Feather Falls. My family originated from Honshu Island, Japan.

Habit Strappy - Ideal for mass planting

Plant family Acanthaceae

I am a beautiful form of Carex oshimensis with striped light silver and green weeping strappy foliage which blows in the breeze to great effect. I originate from the dry woodlands and rocky slopes on Honshu Island in Japan. I require almost no maintenance. I am hardy to frost and wet or dry conditions I am the perfect way to enhance exposed and coastal locations. I thrive in full sun and cope with significant shade. Mass planted I create a stunning effect. Adaptable I perform equally as well in a pot or hanging basket with my weeping foliage a great feature. I produce fairly insignificant brown fluffy flowers in spring.
