Sedges are an immense genus that exists worldwide and many native and introduced species now grow throughout North America. First named by German botanist Ernst Gottlieb von Steudel in his work on grasses, Synopsis Plantarum Glumacearum (1855), Creek Sedge has a broad native range from Ontario south to Georgia and west to Texas. This ornamental sedge thrives along waterways, in deciduous woodlands and rain gardens, and helps to stabilize sloped ground. Deer avoid this plant, but it is a food and host plant for some skipper species of butterflies and turtles eat the seeds.
