Carex dolichostachya ‘Kaga Nishiki’ (G-0098)
Each 10.25
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, fountain-like mound, each slender leaf has a green central stripe emargined in radiant yellow. Long-lived and durable, ‘Kaga Nishiki’ imparts bright accents to verdant broad-leafed perennials in the border.
Size: 8" – 10" high x 18" wide.
Hardy to zone 6.
