Hood’s sedge is a tufted, clump-forming native sedge found in moist to seasonally dry meadows, open woods, and streamside habitat throughout the BC interior. It grows in tidy bunches to about 30-60 cm, with narrow grass-like leaves and slender flower spikes in late spring. Like other native sedges, it provides early-season structure and habitat for insects and small wildlife, and works well mixed into a naturalized meadow or as an unfussy, low-water addition to a native grass planting.
