When you were a kid did you read Dr. Seuss books? If so, the Frosted Curls New Zealand Sedge (Carex comans 'Frosted Curls') may look familiar. It looks like it jumped off the pages of The Lorax or borrowed its shaggy hairstyle from one of those surreal Seussian landscapes!
The shaggy Frosted Curls New Zealand Sedge will add spunk and personality to any garden with its long, full, Grass-like leaves. These long slender leaves are silvery-green and iridescent in the sunlight. This Tufted Sedge will shimmer on sunny, breezy days!
One of the most admirable qualities gardeners appreciate in this plant is its fountain-like shape and manageable size. This Sedge produces a purple and brown flower in late spring into early summer. Hardy throughout USDA planting zones 7-10, these heat and humidity-tolerant Grasses grow 18 - 24 inches in height and width.
