* indicates a California native plant

*Carex occidentalis
western sedge

Native to southwestern U.S. and California north to Montana. Tough and adaptable, surviving with minimal supplemental water in dry habitats such as woodland and grassland communities. With a bit more water becomes a nice evergreen mound 18” high x 2 ft. wide. Works well alone or in groups softening the difficult area under the "knees" of shrubs. Creates a nice bunch grass meadow effect when planted in mass where the slender blades gracefully bend over creating a permanent skirt that provides protective habitat for lizards and other small beneficials. Plant in sun to light shade with little to no summer water once established. Gopher and deer resistant.
