Zone 10a Magnificent!

This is the best decision I ever made on a plant! Love it so much! Way taller than 48” and doesn’t spread.

Beautiful plants arrived.

I repotted these lovely plants, which were already so full and lush and they are doing so great on my deck. The purple foliage is gorgeous and no ugly center comes up like other grasses. Only lovely purple fronds.
