Bronze Sedge

Bronze Sedge has the kind of flowing, perfectly tousled hair that would make a shampoo commercial jealous. This ornamental sedge creates graceful clumps of narrow, bronze-green leaves that move with every breeze.

The color is where Bronze Sedge really earns its name – those slender leaves emerge in shades of copper and bronze that warm up to rich golden-brown tones throughout the growing season. In the right light, the entire clump seems to glow with an inner fire that makes you want to reach out and run your fingers through those silky strands.

What makes Bronze Sedge truly special is its ability to provide fine texture and movement in spots where traditional ornamental grasses might struggle. This Pacific Northwest native is perfectly adapted to our climate and soil, thriving in conditions that range from moist to moderately dry. It's also evergreen, providing year-round structure and color when other grasses have gone dormant.

The inconspicuous flowers and seed heads aren't the main attraction here – it's all about that incredible foliage and the way it creates a sense of movement and flow in the garden. Bronze Sedge is perfect for naturalistic plantings, rain gardens, or anywhere you want to add fine texture with a warm color palette. You'll find this flowing beauty adding movement and bronze tones to our median plantings, proving that sometimes the most understated plants make the biggest impact.
