Spring Cut Back For Carex - Ice Dance Japanese Sedge "Morrowii" - February 17

This is my first cut back on this Sedge. Fairly easy work. Timing is - before new growth show up. I find it frustrating to remove the dead and ugly amongst the nice green leaves. This keeps the plants neat and tidy. now till end of season!

A moja zakwitła w tym roku. Od miesiąca kicham i mam katar, czy to mozliwe, że uczula?

Possible but there are other flowers in blooms this time of year. Have you try allergy medication. I have been for many years in Spring

Tak to prawda, teraz dużo roślin pyli. Muszę kupić leki na alergię. Dziękuję i pozdrawiam z Polski 😊

Mine are in the ground. I didn't know know if I should cut them back, but they look so bad right now. So I found this video. Thanks so much!

My pleasure!

Quick question, mine look all yellow and dry. Are they dead? I live in Ontario Canada. So winters are cold.

[@GardenNotes]

Probably yes. I have 3 of them. Two in small containers in the video. They started to grow but then a week of snow late February. Those two are now yellow and dry too. The one I have in the landscape and protected by a near by plant, survived and is now sending plenty of flower stalks out. Flower stalks for Carex are like blazes oh grass with brown hairy growth at the end.
