Evergold Japanese Sedge 1 Live Plant – Carex oshimensis ‘Evergold’ – 1 Gallon Pot

Evergold Japanese Sedge (Carex oshimensis ‘Evergold’) is an ornamental perennial prized for its distinctive variegated foliage and graceful, arching growth habit. Its narrow leaves feature creamy-yellow to golden centers bordered by deep green margins, creating a bright, two-tone appearance that adds texture and contrast to garden landscapes.

This Japanese sedge forms a dense, fountain-like clump and is evergreen to semi-evergreen depending on the local climate. It is grown primarily for its attractive foliage rather than its inconspicuous flowers. Evergold Sedge is well suited to woodland gardens, shaded perennial borders, garden edging, rock gardens, and decorative outdoor containers.

This listing includes one live Evergold Japanese Sedge in a 1 gallon nursery pot. The plant generally prefers partial shade to shade, although it can tolerate some morning sunlight in cooler climates. Moist, well-drained soil and moderate, consistent moisture help maintain healthy foliage and attractive variegation.
