The primary reason for pruning Carex comans Green is to remove dead or damaged foliage. This helps maintain the plant's aesthetic appeal and promotes healthy new growth. Such light pruning can be done at any time. If more aggressive pruning requires removing 50% of the vegetation, this is generally undertaken during summer when the plants are actively growing. The plants can safely be reduced by up to 75% during this time. The Plant Company recommends that the plants have at least 10 cm of growth at the base of the plant remaining during any severe pruning. Avoid heavy pruning in winter as the plants may not grow back.
