A most welcome trend has evolved over recent years – the growing of ornamental grasses. Carex Ice Dance has been at the forefront of this movement. The arching stems in vivid green with a white edge, the small flowers which appear in the Spring, and no maintenance required, makes this hardy perennial a popular choice. Carex Ice Dance will grow in pots, border, and rockeries. There are not many plants which grow in damp areas, but Carex will. Patio and balcony owners love this sedge, as Ice Dance is happy in a container, adds greenery, and movement in a breeze. Just ensure moisture, partial shade and you will receive many years of the green, green grass of home.
