Carex Buchananii

Dense, erect tussocks of copper-bronze make this one of the most sought after and grown architectural plants. When grown as a solitary specimen it makes a stunning effect with contrasting flowers or silver foliage plants. 

This attractive NZ native perennial grass has an upright rather stiff tufted appearance that lends itself well to architectural designs within the garden. The medium-sized clump of narrow rolled reddish-brown leaves have slight curls at the tips that can bleach to white in full sun. This very easy care plant is suitable for growing in mass plantings or beside ponds and other moisture retentive areas. 

Grows to H 0.6m x W 0.4m
