Black Alpine Sedge is a unique and beautiful perennial grass-like plant native to the alpine ecosystems of Europe. Standing 8-12 inches tall, its shiny, black stems reach upwards in arching fashion with grass-green leaves at the stem bases. It produces a colorful display of brownish-purple and yellow flower-like clusters from June to August. Carex nigricans can grow in a variety of soil conditions and does particularly well in sand and gravel soils. It is easy to establish and is very tolerant of dry conditions. It needs semi-shade to maintain its dark foliage. Black Alpine Sedge is an eye-catching addition to rock gardens and alpine gardens.
