Very easy to grow and low-maitenance, Bunny Blue is heat tolerant to USDA Zone 9b, cold tolerant to -20F, and flourishes well under dry shade conditions, which makes it a perfect choice for providing lovely texture and color under the canopies of shade trees and any other shady landscape situations, or as a specimen in smaller garden spaces or a solo or accent in container gardens. The blue foliage contrasts beautifully with hosta lily, heuchera, hardy ferns, Japanese maples and other shade-loving perennials, shrub and trees. \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLandscape \u0026amp; Garden Uses\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eGrowing12 inches tall and spreading to 15 inches wide or so, Bunny Blue Carex is ideal for use as an accent in smaller garden spaces or containers or in groupings or as a border in large spaces or along paths and walkways. It is an excellent alternative to Blue Fescue for shady locations such as under large shade trees, under decks and other shady areas.

Tolerates dry shade conditions when established however does prefer a moist soil when exposed to more sun. Also tolerates occasional wet periods. Avoid direct sunlight during the midafternoon hours. Very little, if any maintenance is required. Though evergreen, plants can be cut back to the ground after winter if desired to encourage a flush of all new foliage.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHelpful Articles\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eClick on a link below to find helpful advice from our experts on how to plant, fertilize, prune and water Carex plants.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow To Plant And Care For Carex Plants\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow To Measure Total Square Feet Of A Planting Area\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow Many Plants Needed To Cover A Planting Area?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlant Long \u0026amp; Prosper!\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMeet the Wilson Brothers \u0026amp; Staff\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eQuestions?\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cspan\u003eContact Us!\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e                                                                               \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48144955375770,"sku":"D2LSC 876452081","price":25.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0751\/3263\/3242\/files\/carex-laxiculmus-hobb-bunny-blue-sedge-grass-10.jpg?v=1779934953","url":"https:\/\/plant.hcgardenus.com\/products\/bunny-blue-creeping-sedge-carex-laxiculmis-hobb-1-gallon-pot","provider":"Royal Horticultural Society","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
