Carex ×grahamii, commonly known as Graham’s Sedge, is a hybrid perennial herb that is a member of the sedge family. It exhibits a moderate growth rate, reaching heights of 1-2 feet (0.3-0.6 meters). This plant is characterized by its clumping form and narrow, grass-like leaves. The flowers are green or brown and inconspicuous, appearing on spikes in the spring and summer. While the flowers are not showy, the foliage provides a fine-textured visual interest in the garden.

Graham’s Sedge is valued for its ability to thrive in wet conditions and is often used in rain gardens, as a ground cover in moist areas, and for erosion control along waterways. It is also suitable for border plantings in garden settings. This sedge prefers full sun to part shade and grows best in medium to slow-draining clay or loam soils. It requires high amounts of water, making it ideal for areas that are consistently moist. While generally low-maintenance, it can be susceptible to rust and root rot if conditions are too dry.CC BY-SA 4.0
