“A very beautiful sedge” is how E. A. Bowles once described his prized discovery from Norfolk, England. Distinguished by subtle and variable longitudinal green stripes, this courtly, rounded sedge beams graceful clear yellow blades, which become more brilliant in sun and turn lime-yellow in shade. ‘Aurea’s dense, flowing tussock enlivens moist mixed borders, waterside plantings and rock gardens. Combine with other gilded foliage or with the contrasting leaves of Pulmonaria ‘Silver Bouquet’ and a stunning statement is yours to enjoy.
