Details

This non-invasive grass forms clumps of soft green foliage topped in midsummer with heads of soft chaffy flowers stained purple fading to pinkish-buff when dried. Ideal to put with dried annuals like Rhodanthe. Each tassel-like head looks as if the individual papery flowers were threaded then pushed to the tip of the wire-fine stems.
