Carex bicolor, the bicoloured sedge, is a species of sedge native to North America, Northern Europe and Northern Asia. The International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed the plant's conservation status as being of least concern because it has a widespread distribution and faces no particular threats.
Two-color sedge is resistant to disease and is generally unlikely to develop illnesses. Regarding care, this plant is fairly low-maintenance. When grown outdoors it needs only light watering, and larger specimens usually do not require pruning. Smaller specimens, however, should be pruned after they have finished blooming. Two-color sedge is appropriate for anyone with outdoor space, like a garden or deck, and does not demand much prior plant-care experience.
