Gorgeous lime green foliage. Position: full sun or partial shade Soil: any, well-drained soil Rate of growth: average Flowering period: July to August Hardiness: fully hardy Lime green is such a great colour for the garden. That's because it's so fresh and bright - and when placed in a mixed scheme, it seems to bring darker shades to life. This new sedge is perfect then for acting as a foil for richer greens, as well as strong shades of purple, plum and orange. It's also very easy to grow. Garden care: Comb through the plant in winter to remove dead foliage. Feed with a general purpose fertiliser during the growing season and if necessary, lift and divide over-large clumps in early spring.
