Carex retroflexa 'Bonnie and Clyde' (Bonnie and Clyde Reflexed Sedge)

Part Sun to Light ShadeZone: 5-9, guessing 6" tall Origin: USA

NEW! Native from Maine south to Texas, Carex retroflexa (related to C. texensis) can be found in openings of dry deciduous forests. Our particular form is one we collected in 2004 from northern Louisiana's Bienville Parish, where the infamous Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow were gunned down in 1934. For us, Carex retroflexa has made a stunning, very fine textured, mop-top form...a nice complement to the bold textures of hostas in open woodland. Each clump forms a 6" tall x 18" wide mound. We have seen a bit of seeding in moist sites which is fine with us. I think you'll really like this great but little known native.,,,,,,,,,,,, Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
