Carex grayi, or Bur Sedge, is a beautiful ornamental sedge, suitable for pond margins, water features, or any setting with consistent moisture. The remarkable spiked flowers form star-like seed heads which persist into autumn and winter for extended seasonal interest. The unique seeds are a source of food for waterfowl as well as songbirds, making this a good sedge species for the water garden or wildlife garden. Bur Sedge spreads slowly to form an attractive clump in medium to wet soils.
Native plants can be grown outside of their native range in the appropriate growing conditions. This map shows the native range, as well as the introduced range, of this species.
