Ribbons of deep green foliage have an exotic curling form that creates an almost pendulous look to the plant. It makes a great addition to a mixed container garden or window box, where its long leaves can easily cascade over the edges for a graceful waterfall effect. Can also be used as a rich green foliage plant in borders or rock gardens, as well as a unique variety for a shade-friendly ground cover. Perennializes well, reappearing year after year with increased vigor and form. Easy-to-grow Ribbon Falls is tolerant of many types of soil, though it prefers moist sites. Attracts butterflies to the landscape but is resistant to deer. Carex 'Ribbon Falls'
