Carex scaposa DJHV 2304 Chrysanthemum Because it's a prostrate growerCarex scaposa DJHV 2304 is a 2003 Dan Hinkley Vietnamese collection of one of our favorite sedges. This collection of Carex scaposa has shown considerably more vigor in our trials over the typically offered forms of the species. The 1' tall x 2' wide clump of wide green foliage is topped, starting in early October with spikes of light pink flowers that rise above the foliage.
