CAREX

OSHIMENSIS

Carex oshimensis ‘Everest’ is part of the Carex EverColor™ series, a modern ornamental grass range. ‘Everest’ has eye-catching white striped foliage, making it a striking highlight plant for year round designs. The fine, arching, foliage of this decorative grass works as the perfect counterpoint to floral arrangements. Pair with perennials and bulbs to create a dynamic container, use in pots, on roof gardens, in living walls and garden beds for year round colour and texture. As with all the Carex EverColor™ series, ‘Everest’ is low maintenance and easy-to-grow. Likes to be in moist but well draining soil and grows well in full sun, partial shade and shady areas. Evergreen.
