Everest Sedge
Carex oshimensis ‘EverColor Everest’
1 quart pot
 
A crisp and refined ornamental sedge, Everest is prized for its clean green foliage edged with bright white margins that create a sharp, high-contrast look. The fine, arching blades form a tidy, cascading mound that adds structure and brightness to containers, borders, and shaded plantings. Its cool-toned variegation pairs especially well with darker greens and bold foliage plants.
 
This easy-care variety thrives in well-drained soil with consistent moisture and adapts well to both sun and shade. It maintains a compact, uniform habit and holds its color throughout the season with minimal maintenance, requiring only occasional cleanup of older leaves.
