Exemplar Horticulture
This cool season perennial grass forms a vibrant, cascading tussock of narrow chocolate-brown foliage with cinnamon and orange highlights; subtle flowers mature to tiny, brown-black, peppercorn-like seedheads, adding visual appeal; trails attractively over edges; classy winter interest.
Chocolate-brown foliage
Perfect trailing over walls, as accent, in borders, containers, hanging baskets, mass plantings, cottage, rock and shade gardens, by water and on walls and slopes; contrasts well with light-coloured foliage and flowers.
