Nebraska Sedge
(Carex nebrascensis)
Native from Washington south to California, and east to Nebraska and the Dakotas
Generally, we’ve been looking at relatively fine-textured sedges, but here’s one with wider leaves more reminiscent of tall warm-season grasses like Indian grass (Sorghastrum nutans) or switchgrass (Panicum virgatum). The foliage reaches 1 to 3 feet tall, and its seed stalks can double that height while in bloom.
Nebraska sedge prefers moist, if not wet, soil — even standing water in mucky clay. It can thrive at midelevations in arid, sunny conditions as long as its roots remain moist. Although this tends to be a plant for full sun, it does just fine in partial shade.
