Graceful Foliage: Stipa arundinacea features fine, arching leaves that create a soft, flowing effect in the garden. The foliage starts as a bright green in spring and gradually develops striking bronze and copper hues as the season progresses, with the colors deepening in autumn and winter.
Year-Round Interest: This grass is evergreen in milder climates, providing texture and color throughout the year, making it an excellent choice for adding winter interest to the garden.
Elegant Movement: The delicate, arching blades of Stipa arundinacea sway gracefully in the breeze, bringing a sense of movement and life to garden beds and borders.
Compact Growth: Typically growing to a height of 2-3 feet (60-90 cm) with a similar spread, this grass forms a neat, mounding clump that fits well into a variety of garden settings.
Versatile Use: Stipa arundinacea is ideal for mixed borders, rock gardens, coastal gardens, and containers. It also works well in naturalistic planting schemes where its graceful form complements other perennials and grasses.
Drought Tolerant: Once established, this grass is relatively drought-tolerant, making it a low-maintenance option for gardens with well-drained soil.
Low Maintenance: This grass requires minimal care, thriving in full sun to partial shade. It benefits from an annual trim in early spring to remove any dead or damaged leaves and encourage fresh growth.
