Carex bicknellii, Bicknell's Sedge

 Pictures to Come!

 

Another good savanna, prairie and sand prairie sedge with loose clumps of dark green, thin blades and stems for medium to dry, well-draining soils. It is also known as Copper-shouldered Oval Sedge. Apparently Bicknell's Sedge will tolerate moist prairie conditions as well, but I cannot confirm that with experience.

Blooms:  May into June

Height: 24 - 42 inches 

Conditions: sun to pt sun, moist-medium to medium dry, well-draining soils
