Deschampsia flexuosa ‘Tatra Gold’


Golden Hair Grass

USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 8.130.400


This delightful grass forms a well-behaved clump of very fine leaves, like golden yellow hair, especially bright in spring. Upright stems in midsummer bear clouds of tiny, airy flowers in a bronzy-purple shade, maturing to beige. Light and billowing in effect, a wonderful contrast to bold-leaved plants. Suitable also for mixed containers. Flower stems should be cut back in late winter. Clumps may be easily divided in early spring. Seedlings that appear usually come true, and can be moved to a new location while small. Drought tolerant. Evergreen in mild winter regions.
