Hakonechloa macra 'Lime Zest'

Japanese Forest Grass adds wonderful texture and movement to summer shade gardens, and the red stems and long cream and vivid-green striped blades of grass bring it to the next level! The contrasting colors will brighten mixed planters or shady garden borders from spring right up until fall freeze. Airy seed heads may appear in late summer to early fall, and the grass may take on mellow golden tones as the weather cools before dying back in the winter.
