Sand Sedge

Celebrated for its regional ecological value, Sand Sedge (Carex perdentata) is a deciduous Texas native grass native across the Cross Timbers and Edwards Plateau. During Spring, the plant produces brown, green, white blooms. Flowering is followed by achene fruit that adds seasonal contrast. It provides essential nectar, shelter, or forage for native wildlife, including Aquatic Wildlife, Birds, and Browsers. Best suited to clay, loam, moist, and sand, Sand Sedge adapts seamlessly to local soil conditions. It requires minimal supplemental water and tolerates dry spells with ease. It offers moderate deer resistance.
