- Narrow leaves with white edges are spectacular when backlit by the sun
- Good choice for naturalistic or formal displays
Fantastic grass with its variegated leaves that are green with a thin white margin. Gives off a silvery cast when hit with morning or late afternoon sun. Foliage fades to tan throughout the winter. It has an excellent upright, rounded habit that never flops and is deer resistant. Flowers are reddish-bronze and need a very long, hot growing season to bloom. As the seedheads mature they turn a cream color and look great in the winter against the tan leaves. A versatile grass that fits into any landscape.
