Common name Leavenworth's sedge Family cyperaceae Life cycle perennial (Z5-9) Flowers green/tan (spring) Size 12-24" Light sun-shade Cultural notes drought-tolerant Sedge native to the eastern half of the US and parts of Canada, forming a clump of fine grassy foliage with green flower clusters in early spring. While it arrived in our garden as a volunteer, I'm not characterizing it as a weed, because it appears to have potential as a garden specimen.
