It's relatively deep roots help it compete well against weeds and makes it more drought-resistant than typical turf

It has a nice form and a blueish hue in its leaves during the summer that gives way to a nice orange/pink fall foliage which can give excellent winter interest

In extreme cases

and wet forests in natural areas in Illinois

but its real value lies in its highly desirable nuts and its highly prized lumber

Even though it is called "Swamp Milkweed" it is a terrific normal/medium moisture and it works well in rain gardens

The soil pH should be between 5

This sedge looks like mini tussocks of grass in woodlands and can provide nice ground cover between stepping stones when planted densely
