This upright, clump-forming ornamental grass showcases a tidy, vertical habit with dense, slender, green foliage that remains upright even in windy conditions. It's known for its excellent hardiness, thriving in USDA zones 4-9, and tolerates a wide range of temperatures. In the fall, its foliage develops a golden-yellow hue, adding seasonal interest to the landscape. Tiny, airy tan flowers bloom above the foliage in late summer, maturing into delicate seed heads that provide visual texture and attract birds. This grass prefers well-drained soil and is drought-tolerant once established, making it a low-maintenance choice for gardens. Highly deer-resistant, it can reach a mature height of 4-5 feet, making it perfect for borders, mass plantings, or as a striking vertical accent in the landscape.
