Everillo Sedge Ornamental Grasses (Carex Oshimensis Everillo)

Everillo Sedge Ornamental Grasses Description

Everillo Sedge is a striking ornamental grass known for its vibrant, lime green foliage that transforms into a golden yellow hue as the seasons progress. A low growing, evergreen perennial, Everillo Sedge forms neat, dense clumps, offering a soft, arching shape that works beautifully as ground cover, in containers, or at the front of borders. Its bright, cheerful foliage provides year round interest, especially in shaded or woodland gardens, where its radiant colour contrasts beautifully with darker plants.

Pruning Advice

Cutting Back: In early spring, before the new growth starts, cut back any old or damaged leaves to ground level. This will help clear away winter damaged foliage and make room for fresh new growth. Cutting back also helps prevent the plant from becoming too untidy or overgrown.

Division: Every 2 to 3 years, divide the clumps to prevent overcrowding and to promote healthier, more vigorous growth. Dividing the plant also offers an opportunity to propagate new plants for other parts of the garden.

Watering: Although it is fairly drought tolerant once established, Everillo Sedge benefits from regular watering, particularly during dry spells. Ensure the soil remains consistently moist but well drained.

General Maintenance: Remove any dead or damaged leaves as they appear throughout the year to keep the plant tidy and prevent it from becoming too leggy.

Further Information

Year Round Interest: As an evergreen plant, Everillo Sedge maintains its colourful foliage throughout the year, adding a splash of brightness to shaded areas even in winter. The transition from lime green to golden yellow as the season progresses provides ongoing visual appeal.

Low Maintenance: Everillo Sedge is a relatively low maintenance plant once established. It thrives in moist, well drained soil and requires minimal care, making it an excellent choice for gardeners looking for an easy to grow ornamental grass.

Shade Tolerant: It excels in partial to full shade, making it perfect for filling gaps in shaded areas of the garden, under trees, or along woodland edges where other plants may struggle.

Compact Size: With a height of around 30 to 45 cm (12 to 18 inches), Everillo Sedge is ideal for adding texture and colour to the front of borders, as a ground cover, or in smaller garden spaces. Its compact form ensures it will not overpower other plants.

Versatility: In addition to its use in shaded gardens, Everillo Sedge is also well suited for containers, where it can brighten up balconies, patios, or shaded courtyards. Its ability to thrive in low light makes it versatile for a variety of settings.
