A sparkling creamy white variegated form of the Palm Sedge for part shade and decent soil that doesn't dry out too much. Deciduous but retains presence overwinter. 50cm.

A very attractive form with the majority of the leaf varying from bright white, through cream to soft primrose yellow all set off by the rich green margins. A good choice for a container in a light or partly shaded position.

A German selection.

May be identical to 'Ice Fountains', a name that seems to originate in the USA.
