Description
I joined the 365-day Journal challenge for 2022 and here is my ‘Day 239’.
Aug 27, 2022, Journal Entry:
These green tonal leaves belong to a type of Carex plant, also known as Sedge, growing freely in the ground at the community where my mother and sister live. I liked the striations of the green tones throughout the long curvy leaves. Editing consisted of a slight enhancement of the overall image.
Carex (Sedge) are evergreen plants. This one is most likely a Japanese Sedge called Eversheen. They have slender leaves that are lime green with dark green edges. There are over 1500 varieties of Sedge and they are a perennial plant that enhance gardens in warmer climates.
