Uncinia rubra ‘Everflame’ thrives best in full sun to partial shade.
Sunlight enhances the vivid red and orange highlights, while partial shade keeps the foliage lush and glossy.
This sedge prefers moist, well-drained soil and adapts well to a variety of conditions:
Loamy or sandy soil
Neutral to slightly acidic pH
Consistently moist but never waterlogged
It performs beautifully in containers, garden beds, and along shaded pathways where its color stands out against green foliage.
Watering: Keep evenly moist, especially during dry or hot periods.
Pruning: Remove any faded or damaged leaves in early spring.
Feeding: Apply a balanced slow-release fertilizer once a year in spring.
Winter care: In colder climates, protect the plant from severe frost or grow in a pot that can be moved indoors.
‘Everflame’ maintains its vibrant color throughout the year, with the foliage deepening in tone as temperatures drop. In summer, it produces subtle dark flower spikes that add texture without overpowering its glowing leaves.
Excellent for containers, rock gardens, or mixed borders.
Combines beautifully with silver, green, or purple-leaved plants such as heucheras, hostas, and carex varieties.
Perfect as an accent plant to bring warmth to shady corners or to contrast cooler tones in modern gardens.
