Carex comans 'Amazon Mist' | mop-headed sedge

This plant will not be available in 2026, however, propagation is planned/underway. Please sign up for the waitlist below to receive updates on availability in future years.

Amazon Mist is supposedly not hardy to our zone, but we have had good luck growing it in a relatively protected location (fingers crossed that continues!). Even if it doesn't make it through the next winter, we will grow it again in a container or as an annual in the border. It forms perfectly round clumps of fine, frosty green foliage that shimmer in the landscape.
