This elegant cool season perennial grass forms a clump of long, arching, medium green blades; striking, feathery purple-red plumes mature to bronze; plumes attract morning dew and sparkle in the sun; excellent cut flower; deer resistant.
Good in containers, borders, mass plantings, shade, woodland and water-wise gardens, as a specimen and near water
Goes dormant in fall, cut old foliage back to 2in before new growth starts early spring. Plumes make great cut flowers
