Mature Height: 18-24″

I grew this from seed last year , but it does require some time.. Once this grass got going I was thrilled with its performance .    It is a beautiful grass , it plumed rather late in summer but it was worth the wait. 

I used this in my beds of grasses and it made quite a beautiful presentation amongst the other grasses.

I would definitely recommend this plant.
