Choose Fox Sedge for wet spots, rain gardens, and naturalized edges where regular perennials struggle. The tradeoff: it looks more meadow-like than tidy, so skip it for a formal front-bed look.
| Category | Grade | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Landscape Impact | B- | Fox Sedge gives a natural wetland look, but it is not a showpiece plant. |
| Growth Rate | B | It settles in steadily where moisture is consistent, though it is not an instant groundcover. |
| Maintenance | B+ | Once placed in the right wet site, it needs little more than occasional cleanup. |
| Deer Resistance | A- | Deer rarely bother ornamental grasses; the bladed foliage is not a favorite, though hungry deer may nip tender new growth. |
| Small Space Fit | C+ | It can work in a small wet pocket, but the loose habit may feel messy up close. |
| Screening Value | D | This is a ground-layer plant, not a screen or privacy grass. |
At PGNE, we'd typically use Fox Sedge where drainage is the problem, not where a homeowner wants a neat ornamental grass centerpiece.
| Mature Height | 1-3 ft |
|---|---|
| Mature Width | 1-2 ft |
| Hardiness Zones | 3a-7b |
| Spacing | 12-18 in |
| Sun | Full Sun to Part Shade |
| Moisture | Average to wet |
| Growth Habit | Upright, arching, tufted |
Yes, that is the main reason to choose it.
Not really; it has a looser, native meadow look.
No, choose another sedge or grass for dry sites.

Showed up on time and planted it perfectly. I indicated a light we had to illuminate it and they placed it for optimal lighting. Worked fast and left a clean worksite. First rate!
Really great website, communication and installation. Very happy customer and would recommend them.
They delivered three trees: a big linden, a big poplar and a little spice bush with install on the big trees. The install guys were great and professional and fast. All the trees looked good with minimal damage.
I went up there today from Quincy MA to pick up two Blue Wichita Junipers and they were absolutely beautiful. Thank you, Chris and everybody from Pro Growers of New England!
The plants are beautiful and all 13 were consistent in height and width. And at a fraction of the cost of other garden centers. Having the team that delivered them do the planting was one of the best values I can think of. They did a great job from start to finish and even helped me with my watering system which they didn’t have to do!
Very dedicated and professional. We are happy with the way they planted 14 trees for us. 11 green giants, 2 white pines and 1 Norway spruce.
Picked up my plants-ostrich ferns and blue ice amsonia without any problems! Wonderful, responsive owners! Will be buying from them in the future!
