A large, deciduous to semi-evergreen clumping perennial grass that will need to be allowed room to grow.
- Foliage emerges as bright red shoots in spring, developing into long, arching, slender, variegated leaves that are dark green with a silvery-white midrib. Shades of purples and reds take over as the season progresses, providing interest with every season.
- Red flower stems begin to emerge in late spring, which mature into elegant feathery blooms from late July onwards, lasting well into the autumn. Flower heads catch the light beautifully, and should be left alone to create long-lasting interest that will retain through the winter months, before cutting the whole plant back in spring.
- Perfect for full sun or semi-shade, its architectural foliage colour and large mounding form will create noticeable focal points and texture in the garden year-round.
- Should be cut back to 4-6 inches in March/April to allow for lush fresh growth for the upcoming growing season.
- Height and Spread approx. 120-150cm x 100-120cm.
- Supplied in a 9cm pot
