Carex praegracilis is a rhizomatous, evergreen, cool-season sedge that forms a dense turf-like sod. It is an excellent no-mow or low-mow turf alternative or groundcover. It has a high tolerance to foot traffic. Excellent weed suppression. Other uses include erosion control, meadows, rain gardens, and between pavers. It has moderate water needs, but highly drought-tolerant once established. Tolerates a wide variety of soils, from sand to heavy clay. It thrives in full sun, but in hot areas, it will need ample water. It grows well and stays greener in partial shade with less water. Deer-resistant. Fire-resistant. Cold-hardy to 0°F.
