Carex Crying Time forms a beautiful clump up to 30" tall and 4.5' wide, with many delicate, weeping flowerheads from early May through early summer. It thrives in half-day sun and slightly moist soil but tolerates some shade and brief dry spells. For neatness, cut flower stalks after blooming to control spreading—unless you want more plants!
