'Bunny Blue' is evergreen, so its tussock metallic-blue foliage is visible year round, plus its foliage is wider than many other Carex adding great texture to an already great looking, functional plant. 'Bunny Blue' is perfect for grouping in a shaded rock garden and thrives in moist, well-drained locations. It provides great cover for a variety of landscape critters and even is resistant to deer damage.
