An excellent grass for the garden or landscape, screening or at water's edge. Striking complement to large-leaved plants or combined with berrying shrubs and evergreens for winter effect. Lovely flower plumes, excellent cut or dried. Clump-forming.

Hummingbirds are drawn to the dainty flowers offset by bold, richly colored foliage. Gorgeous next to lady's mantle, delicate woodland ferns, or wide silvery-blue hosta leaves. The strong, straight stems are ideal in cut flower arrangements. Mulch lightly in winter to protect shallow roots. Prefers average, moist well-drained soil.

Striking long-blooming flowers attract hummingbirds. Compact growth is well-suited for garden's edge, rock gardens or for delightful bouquets. Lovely planted with cranesbill, yarrow and lamb's ear. Remove faded flowers to promote rebloom.
