Carex dolichostachya ‘Kaga Nishiki’ full sun  partial shade

Nishiki means “brocade,” and it rightly describes the variegated blades of this superb selection, which comes to our country from Japan’s Gotemba Nursery. Forming a tidy, fountainlike mound, each slender leaf has a green central stripe emargined in a radiant gold. Long-lived and durable, ‘Kaga Nishiki’ makes a bright accent against the broad-leafed greenery in the border.

Size: 8"–10" high x 18" wide; hardy to zone 6.
