Description

Carex lupulina, commonly known as Hop Sedge, is a perennial sedge native to wetlands and low-lying areas of North America. It thrives in saturated soils, including marshes, swamps, and floodplains. This sedge forms dense clumps of arching green leaves that can reach heights of up to 3 feet. Its distinctive, hop-like seed heads are inflated, spiky, and greenish-brown, appearing from late spring through summer. These seed clusters add ornamental value and serve as an essential food source for birds and small mammals.

Hop Sedge is a vital component of wetland ecosystems, offering habitat and erosion control. It is highly adaptable to waterlogged conditions and contributes to water filtration by stabilizing soils and absorbing excess nutrients. It is often used in wetland restoration projects and rain gardens due to its ecological benefits and ability to thrive in challenging conditions.
