| Description | Aptly named, this unique rush has glossy green, pencil-thin stems that spiral outward from the clump in all directions. A great deer resistant accent plant that collectors dare not do without. This low maintenance plant prefers to be sited in a bog or other very moist environment in partial shade. Evergreen in mild winter areas. |
