A neat, evergreen, ornamental sedge with white variegated foliage and flowers in early spring to 15cm. Ideal for good soil in shade.

Very much like the commonly grown Carex conica 'Snowline' but supposed to be more evergreen with better foliage. I haven't grown 'Snowline' for a few years so can't say! But, this form is good!
