Plant details
Ogon' is a specially attractive, dwarf, rush-like plant with gold and green variegated leaves which, while not fully evergreen, will withstand all but the worst winters. Grown only for their foliage, plants associate well with other compact evergreens such as bergenia and black mondo grass to make outstanding winter and early spring displays - ideal for the front of damp sunny borders or in containers. Its size makes it specially suitable for miniature water features such as half barrels or large ceramic bowls filled with water.
