Sand Sedge

A resilient native native Texas grass & sedge that provides year-round foliage and structure to the landscape. Native across the Cross Timbers and Edwards Plateau, Sand Sedge (Carex perdentata) thrives in local conditions while supporting the surrounding ecosystem. During spring, the plant produces brown, green, white flower clusters. Flowering gives way to ornamental achenes that ripen through summer and autumn. The species provides essential habitat and food, supporting Aquatic Wildlife, Birds, and Browsers. Thriving in clay, loam, moist, and sand, Sand Sedge demonstrates outstanding hardiness once established. It requires minimal supplemental water and adapts seamlessly to drought conditions. It features moderate deer resistance.
