Small Tussock Grass
Carex geminata (Rautahi)
Carex geminata, commonly known as Rautahi, is a fine-leaved New Zealand native sedge that forms dense, tufted clumps up to 50 cm tall. Its slender green foliage holds firm throughout the year, adding graceful texture to any landscape. Thriving in moist, well‑drained soils and full sun to partial shade, it suits riparian zones, wetlands, and garden edges. It’s low‑maintenance, tolerates light flooding, and is perfect for naturalistic or native garden plantings.

Poa cita
Poa cita, commonly known as Silver Tussock, is a clump-forming NZ native grass with delicate, green foliage that wafts gracefully in the breeze. It typically grows to 60 cm in height and 50 cm in width, preferring a full sun or partial shade position on a well-drained site. Poa cita is also often included in borders, rock gardens, mass-planted on a bank, or planted to help minimize erosion. Landscape designers in NZ frequently use Silver Tussock in alpine-themed gardens or modern gardens for their rounded, architectural form.
