Few Flowered Sedge prefers a site that gets full sun to partial shade. If grown in full sun, more moisture will be needed, especially during long dry periods. Too much shade will reduce flowering and produce fewer fruits. Plants should receive at least 4 hours of unobstructed, direct sunlight each day, ideally during the morning hours.

Pruning for Few Flowered Sedge (Carex pauciflora) should be done annually and should involve the removal of all dead, damaged or diseased foliage. Prune back the plants to just above soil level at the end of the growing season, typically in late autumn. This will help preserve the plant's vigour for the following year. To maintain the plant's natural form, simply trim back any particularly long and overgrown stems. To encourage healthy growth, remove any overgrown stems that are encroaching on neighbouring plants. For a more natural look, the old leaves may be left uncut in a free-form shape around the plants, providing a light environment ideal for flowering.
