Notes
'Evercolor Everest Variegated' sedge (Carex 'Evercolor Everest Variegated') is a grass for borders, shade gardens, and rain gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun to full shade and average to moist, sandy, loamy, or clay soil. It stays evergreen, so it adds color to the garden all year. Butterflies and birds visit it, and it blooms in spring and summer. Deer rarely make it their first choice.
