Carex oshimensis ‘Evergold’

Elegant Evergreen Sedge with Year-Round Colour

Carex oshimensis ‘Evergold’ is a refined ornamental grass prized for its graceful arching habit and striking variegated foliage. Its narrow leaves feature a creamy-gold central stripe framed by dark green edges, creating a glowing effect that adds brightness and movement to borders, containers, and shaded areas.

This evergreen sedge from Japan is versatile, low-maintenance, and particularly effective for illuminating dark garden corners or providing contrast in mixed plantings. Whether used in mass plantings, along paths, in pots, or under trees, ‘Evergold’ offers year-round interest and tidy form.


🌿 Seasonal Beauty & Growth

Spring:

  • Fresh new leaves emerge with bold gold centres and clean green margins

  • Tidy mounded form creates instant structure

Summer:

  • Grows steadily, adding light and texture to the border

  • May produce short, brownish flower spikes, though foliage remains the star

Autumn:

  • Colour remains vibrant into autumn

  • Combines well with autumn-toned foliage and late perennials

Winter:

  • Retains evergreen structure and colour

  • Provides reliable shape and glow in dormant winter beds


📏 Structure & Form

  • Height: 30–40 cm

  • Spread: 40–50 cm

  • Habit: Mounded, cascading and dense

  • Foliage: Narrow, arching leaves with golden centres and green margins

  • Flowers: Small, inconspicuous brown flower spikes in spring


🌱 Growing Conditions & Care

  • Soil: Moist but well-drained; adapts to most soil types

  • Hardiness: RHS H5 – hardy in most UK regions

  • Maintenance:

    • Trim back old or damaged leaves in late winter or early spring

    • Divide clumps every few years to maintain vigour

    • Mulch in dry areas to retain soil moisture
