Carex Gracilis F. Rudis

Rudis sedge, scientifically known as Carex gracilis f. rudis, is a unique and lesser-known variant of the sedge family. This plant is characterized by its slender, grass-like leaves and compact growth habit, making it well-suited for moist, shaded environments. Native to parts of North America, it thrives in wetlands and along the edges of ponds and streams. Despite its beauty and ecological importance, Rudis sedge remains relatively obscure in horticultural circles. Its subtle appearance and adaptability make it a valuable addition to native plant gardens and restoration projects.
