watering
Sedge (Carex siderosticha 'Kisokaido' SPRING SNOW) thrive best with regular moisture. Water your plant deeply and evenly once a week in the spring and summer months and once every 2 weeks in the fall and winter months. Reduce the amount of watering in the late summer, as the plant may become dormant. If the soil doesn’t feel moist, add a little extra water. Pull up a little soil to check the moisture - if it’s dry near the surface, give a deeper, thorough watering. Be sure to never let the soil become soggy as this can lead to root rot.
sunlight
Sedge (Carex siderosticha 'Kisokaido' SPRING SNOW) should receive full sunlight during the spring and summer months, or at least 4 to 6 hours of direct sunlight each day. During the winter, this species should receive indirect sunlight, such as from a south- or east-facing window. Partial shade is also acceptable, as long as the plant receives at least a few hours of direct sunlight. This species should be kept away from drafts or windy locations to protect its delicate foliage.
pruning
Pruning of Carex siderosticha 'Kisokaido' SPRING SNOW should take place once a year, in late winter or early spring. During this time, remove any dead, diseased, or out-of-scale stems from the plant. Additionally, trim back up to 1-third of the stems to maintain an attractive shape and size. It is important to remove no more than 1-third of the plant at any 1 time in order to avoid any shock to the plant. Following pruning, you can mulch around the plant to help conserve soil moisture and suppress weeds.
