variegated carex
Variegated Carex are truly standout ornamental grasses that bring structure, texture, and colour to New Zealand gardens, courtyards, and landscapes. These eye-catching sedges feature attractive striped foliage, often in tones of creamy white, gold, or lime set against deep green blades. Variegated Carex varieties are prized for their low maintenance habits and ability to thrive in a wide range of growing conditions, from partial shade to full sun. Whether mass planted for striking drifts or tucked into pots for accent features, variegated Carex can elevate contemporary or naturalistic garden designs with ease.
