Hook Sedge (Uncinia rubra)

Have had this lovely ornamental grass for a few years now, and so glad that, with the common name "Hook" Sedge, fits in well with our current garden theme!

It so colour full does it stay like this during winter too David?

Lots of dark red, brown and green foliage, 6d. It does keep its foliage all year round, but some leaves do die and become brittle and off-white. You just cut these out in Spring.. It grows quite large, too, but easily divided into smaller clumps for use in baskets, tubs, etc.

Thank you David good idea to put in tubs or baskets.
