Oreojuncus trifidus
Oreojuncus trifidus
Oreojuncus trifidus, commonly known as three-forked rush, is a compact alpine rush suited to cool, moist, and mountainous garden conditions. It thrives in part shade with reliably moist, acidic soils and is best suited to rock gardens or alpine troughs that mimic its natural high-altitude habitat. This is a specialist plant rarely found outside dedicated native or alpine plant collections.
