Add bright color and texture to your shade garden with gorgeous 'Ice Dance' Sedge. This ornamental grass is an evergreen, with showy white edges lining each moss-green blade. Deer-resistant sedges prefer moist soil, and they can be used to edge streams, ponds, and banks. Makes a fine 'filler' for adding texture to container plantings. (Carex morrowii)
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low
temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will
survive the winter temperatures in your area.
If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack
of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).
'Ice Dance' Sedge is a nifty plant for adding
texture to your shade garden. Unlike many ornamental grasses, 'Ice
Dance'
thrives in partial to full shade in moist to wet soils, making them a problem-solving
plant for tricky spaces. The stiff, evergreen leaves are dark green in the
center with white edges. It works well as a slow-growing groundcover, spreading
underground via rhizomes to form a mat of evergreen foliage. 'Ice
Dance'
has few pest or disease problems. Performs best in partial shade. Trim plants back in late winter or early spring to encourage fresh new
growth.
