Pollination Info
Pollination Info for Feather Falls Sedge (Carex x 'ET CRX01')
Feather Falls Sedge (Carex x 'ET CRX01') is a hybrid sedge that can reproduce through both sexual and asexual means.
The plant is primarily wind-pollinated, as it produces small, inconspicuous flowers that do not attract pollinators. The male flowers produce pollen that is released into the air and carried by wind to nearby female flowers.
In addition, Feather Falls Sedge can also reproduce asexually through rhizomes, which are underground stems that can give rise to new plant shoots. This allows the plant to spread and form dense clumps in suitable habitats.
Overall, Feather Falls Sedge is a self-compatible plant, meaning that the flowers can be pollinated by their own pollen to produce viable seeds. However, cross-pollination by wind from nearby plants can increase genetic diversity and strengthen the population.
