Flowering
From Early Spring TO Early Summer
Clusters of small brown flowers appear atop arching stems in Spring to early Summer
Planting
From Mid Spring TO Mid Spring
Luzula thrives in moist, humus-rich soil, in shade or partial shade. It will tolerate sun, as long as the soil is consistently moist.
Propagating by division
From Early Autumn TO Mid Autumn
After approximately three years, once herbaceous perennial varieties have become established clumps they should be divided in order to retain vigour, or for propagation. The simplest method is to carefully dig around the clump and gently pull it apart into fist sized pieces and re-plant immediately. The middle of the original clump should be discarded as this will have lost vigour and become woody.
