Carex baltzellii
Baltzell's sedge is a rare, clump-forming perennial grass-like sedge native to forested ravine slopes in the southeastern United States. It is a wild native rather than a common garden plant, so it is grown mainly in native-plant or woodland restoration settings and needs shade and moist, well-drained woodland soil.
Carex baltzellii, Baltzell's sedge, is a species of flowering plant in the family Cyperaceae, native to the US states of Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, and Georgia. A rare species, it is found only on the slopes of forested ravines.
