Description

Carex 'Everest' has narrow, deep blue-green arching leaves with striking silver-white frosting along the edges. Carex 'Everest' is a Japanese Sedge (C. oshimensis) that like the others forms neat mounds of vigorous grassy foliage.

Carex 'Everest' prefers partial to light shade and moist, well-drained soil, but tolerates poor soil and drought, once established. Great for containers, Carex 'Everest' also makes a very nice, evergreen, perennial ground cover for shady areas. An award winner.

We ship via UPS & USPS (the Post Office), and their ship rates are automatically generated through our site. We do not profit on shipping costs. We are working with these providers to get our customers the best rates possible.

All ship times are subject to change if extreme weather conditions are present here at the nursery or at the shipping destination.

Please note: Depending on the time of year, the foliage of the plants may be trimmed to fit into our shipping boxes. This could delay the flowering of the plant, but many perennials actually benefit from being cut back.

We are currently not able to ship to Puerto Rico, Hawaii, and outside of the US.
