I don't think so Rosefriend. I think you just pull your fingers through it to get out the dried bits. Mine are a bit greener than yours but you can see green down low on your plants. I've just taken a bread knife to mine and split them both in half. |

I did wonder as you can't cut it - the secateurs won't go through - pleased that I asked - thanks Jasmine !! RF |

Must say that crossed my mind when I was looking at it Jasmine - I reckon my hands would be cut to ribbons !! RF |

The name Carex comes from the Greek keiro, to cut and which alludes to the sharp edges of the leaf blades found on many of the species. |

Sounds like a plan although I have to say there was no blood shed when I split my 2 carex - may have been more luck that judgement though!!
