Carex buchananii, commonly known as New Zealand sedge or leatherleaf sedge, is an ornamental grass prized for its unique texture and warm, coppery-brown hues. This perennial grass forms clumps of narrow, arching leaves that add an elegant, wispy appearance to gardens, making it an excellent choice for accenting borders, rock gardens, or as part of a mixed planting scheme. Unlike many other grasses, Carex buchananii maintains its striking color throughout the year, providing visual interest even in winter. It thrives in well-drained soil and prefers full sun to partial shade, with good tolerance for drought once established. This versatile grass pairs beautifully with other perennials and grasses, adding movement and contrast to landscapes. With its low-maintenance nature and year-round appeal, Carex buchananii is an excellent addition for those looking to infuse their garden with texture and subtle color.
