What’s not to love about ‘Everillo’ EverColor® Carex? This easy-care grass offers bright foliage year-round.
For maximum appeal, choose a striking, multicolor container—I selected a pair of blue ombré pots, which bear a complementary hue to the contents. Then, stack the containers to create a visual impact.
How to create a quick and easy vertical container:
Step 1:
Fill the 12-inch container with soil and pack firmly. This will be your base container.
Step 2:
Place the 8-inch container on top of the soil toward the back of the 12-inch container. This allows more planting space in the front.
Step 3:
Fill the top container with several inches of soil ensuring enough space is left to plant the ‘Everillo’ Carex.
Step 4:
Remove one ‘Everillo’ Carex from its original pot and loosen the roots.
Step 5:
Place the ‘Everillo’ Carex in the top container and add soil around the plant as needed.
Step 6:
Remove the two remaining Carex from their pots, loosen the roots and plant in the front portion of the bottom container.
Tip: ‘Everillo’ EverColor Carex does not need much room to grow and works well for smaller pots. However, the bigger the pot, the larger the plant will grow. Also, these easy-care plants do not need a lot of water. For best results, water once a week during the winter and twice a week in the summer.
