- Carex rosea is a perennial sedge plant that is native to North America, specifically found in regions of the eastern United States and parts of Canada. It typically grows in moist to wet habitats such as wetlands, marshes, and along the edges of streams or ponds.
- Rosy sedge is known for its distinctive pinkish or rosy hue, which gives it its common name. The coloration is most pronounced in the young shoots and leaf sheaths, adding a touch of uniqueness to this sedge species.
- This sedge has narrow, arching leaves that are typically green or bluish-green in color. The leaves grow in dense clumps and can reach a height of around 1 to 2 feet (30 to 60 centimeters). The foliage creates a delicate and graceful appearance in the landscape.
- Carex rosea produces flowering spikes that emerge from the center of the clump. The flower spikes are slender and elongated, with small flowers that are greenish-brown in color. The flowering period usually occurs in late spring to early summer.
- Rosy sedge is often used in wetland restoration projects, as it can help stabilize soil and prevent erosion. It also provides habitat and food sources for various wildlife species. Additionally, the unique coloration and attractive foliage make it a desirable choice for ornamental gardens, especially those with moist or wet conditions.

Care Instructions
Different plants have different watering needs. Check the soil moisture by inserting your finger about an inch into the soil. If it feels dry, water the plant until the water drains from the bottom of the pot. Avoid overwatering, as it can lead to root rot.
