Description
Carex ‘Bronze Form’ is one of those plants that quietly makes everything around it look better. It forms a neat, arching mound of fine, bronze-copper foliage that moves beautifully in the breeze and adds warm colour all year round.
It’s perfect for softening the edge of a path, weaving through borders, underplanting shrubs, or adding texture in pots. Use it in drifts for a natural look, or repeat it throughout a scheme to tie planting together.
