Carex 'Toffee Twist'

A Grass for all seasons—Carex ‘Toffee Twist’

Here’s a grass to keep in the every season section of the design toolbox for problem solving. We sell Carex ‘Toffee Twist’ year round for good reason. As a cool season grass it’s a good citizen in both winter and spring gardens, and dramatic foliage is always in demand.

Extra curly Yokohama Kale

Frilly foliage of Ornamental Kale gives flowering annuals a run for their money, and our new Yokohama varieties have a very unique look. You can see that the leaves are extra, extra curly—and these plants are dwarfs so they hug the ground. This makes them great for filling out fall beds, adding deep violet and frosty white to the landscape when their centers color up as the temps drop below 55°F at night.

 
Dwarf plants hug the ground and fill out containers

Yokohamas grow on the small size as Kales go, about 7 to 9 inches high and about 15 to 18 inches wide. This lets them work in smaller containers and tighter spaces but their tightly coiled leaves still stand out in an arrangement. Even better, they are very cold tolerant so they last well into autumn and through the initial snows of winter. Frost only enhances the color—and for texture you’d have a hard time beating them.

‘Yokohama Red’ and ‘Yokohama White’ are available in the 8-inch pot. Red comes in the 6-inch pot as well.
