Features

notes
One of the most beautiful ornamental grasses, the New Zealand hair sedge, Carex Prairie Fire brings colour and interest to the garden year-round. It forms a low, cascading mound of olive-green strap-like leaves tipped with orange. The colour of the foliage deepens through the autumn with brown flower spikes appearing in summer.
