A gorgeous centrepiece for the garden. This large grass has an ethereal, soft feel and the feathery seed heads growing to 2m tall. With a nice, upright habit this brilliant and easy choice will add structure to your garden. It fills a space beautifully, is quick to establish and simple to care for.
Grasses are versatile and easy care plants that dazzle in a range of garden positions. Grasses can be included in cottage settings, xeriscapes, edging, hedging, mass plantings, pots and more. They compliment perennials beautifully, their feathery plumes lasting for many months. This large growing variety makes a great wind break in open gardens.
The flowers/seed heads are good for cutting and display beautifully in a vase. They change from a golden straw colour in summer to bronze in autumn.
Plant in a sunny spot with well drained soil. Water in, they become dry tolerant once established. The stems will ‘over winter’ and look good throughout with bronze plumage. Cut back hard early spring to allow the new growth to shine. Quick to establish.
