The flowers emerge flushed with purple before maturing to shimmering gold, catching the light beautifully and lasting well into autumn.
Architectural yet transparent in effect, this statuesque grass brings height, movement, and structure to mixed borders, gravel gardens, and Mediterranean-style planting. Despite its scale, it allows planting beneath and around it, making it an invaluable structural perennial for sunny, free-draining sites. Pairs well with other sun-loving perennials
