Carex plantaginea - Hanging sedge

continental : Locate this plant in a partially shady spot, where it is exposed to sunrays during the coolest hours of the day.
These plants are grown in the garden year round because they are rustic.

alpine : Let's favour partially shaded places for the The Carex plantaginea , where they can enjoy direct sunlight for some hours a day.
These plants are rustic, they can stand the heat and cold, therefore they can be planted outside.

mediterranean : The Carex plantaginea prefers cool and not too sunny spots; therefore let's choose a position in which it is exposed to solar rays only during the coolest hours of the day.
These plants can stand the cold weather, they can be grown as garden plants during the whole year.

continental : During this time of year very frequent watering is advised, even daily if the climate is very hot and dry; let’s try to keep the soil cool and damp. Irrigate every 0-1 weeks, during the evening or morning hours.

alpine : The Carex plantaginea should be watered regularly, to maintain the substratum slightly damp using 0-1 buckets of water; if the climate is very hot and there are scarce precipitations it might be necessary to water every 1-2 weeks, or more often than that.

mediterranean : We suggest watering often, trying to keep the soil slightly damp with 2-3 buckets of water, but avoiding excesses; the forming of water stagnations also harm those plants which love wetness, usually the frequency of watering is every 0-0 weeks.

Feed Carex plantaginea : Let’s enrich the soil of the freshly planted plants with granular slow release fertilizer; aquatic plants which have been cultivated for long don’t’ need fertilizing during the summer period.

Adversity Carex plantaginea : Summer treatments should be applied only in cases of displayed infesting; a dry climate favours the development of ticks and rust. During this period of the year, since there are many useful insects in the garden, it is advisable to avoid using wide-range products, favouring the use of specific products against each type of parasite. Let’s apply the treatments during early morning or evening hours.
