  • Description

  • Notes

A great accent grass that grows to 4' x 4'. Gray green leaves fade to yellow in the fall then to beige in winter. Showy feather seed heads appear in the summer and reach 7' tall. Very tough and deep rooted. Good for alkaline conditions. Cut back in late winter for fresh regrowth.
