{"product_id":"bebb-s-oval-sedge-carex-bebbii","title":"Bebb's Oval Sedge (Carex bebbii)","description":"\u003cp\u003eBebb's Oval Sedge is a hardy, fine-textured wetland specialist that excels in open, sunny marshes and wet meadows. It grows in dense, upright tufts reaching 1 to 3 feet tall, with slender stems topped by crowded clusters of small, oval, brownish spikes. This sedge is a common sight along riverbanks and lake edges throughout its native range, where it plays a vital role in stabilizing shorelines and filtering water. It is particularly well-suited for areas that remain wet or experience seasonal standing water. This species supports a wide range of wetland biodiversity, providing essential cover for amphibians, dragonflies, and other beneficial insects. Bebb's Oval Sedge is an excellent choice for wetland restorations or for planting around the margins of a garden pond. It prefers full sun and consistently moist to wet soils, though it is quite resilient once established. Its neat, tufted growth habit and unique seed clusters add visual interest and a sense of natural authenticity to any water-focused landscape project.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eQuick facts\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHeight:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1–3 ft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSun:\u003c\/strong\u003e Full\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSoil moisture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium-Wet to Medium\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBloom time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Jun–Jul\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLife cycle:\u003c\/strong\u003e Perennial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNotes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cool-season\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNative range:\u003c\/strong\u003e Native to 28 states, including Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Nebraska, South Dakota\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/database.hokseynativeseeds.com\/species\/carex-bebbii\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSee the full growing guide and county range map for Bebb's Oval Sedge\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Hoksey Native Seeds","offers":[{"title":"1\/2 oz","offer_id":50926653636805,"sku":null,"price":46.61,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"1 oz","offer_id":50926653669573,"sku":null,"price":77.68,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0752\/6567\/1365\/files\/carex-bebbii_0804_130107.jpg?v=1793738536","url":"https:\/\/hokseynativeseeds.com\/products\/bebb-s-oval-sedge-carex-bebbii","provider":"Hoksey Native Seeds","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
