Description
Soft Rush is a classic, clump-forming perennial rush known for its bright green, cylindrical, and seemingly leafless stems that arch gracefully at the tips. It forms lush, fountain-like tufts that add a soft, vertical texture to damp areas. While it produces small, brownish flower clusters near the stem tips in summer, its main appeal is its vibrant, evergreen foliage. It naturally thrives in wet conditions but is surprisingly adaptable, making it a versatile plant for rain gardens, pond edges, or even container water gardens.
