| Posted by sandnsea2 (Cape Cod, MA, USA - Zone 7a) on Oct 4, 2011 4:32 PM This is a great plant in so many ways, but it must be given plenty of room. The Fall interest it provides is important and the feathery heads are graceful and billowy. In summer the striped leaves are pretty and interesting. This is a perfect 'back of the border' plant. It does take a few years to mature into the clump you see in the photo, which is 4 years old in my garden.This is one plant I would not want to be without. [ Reply to this comment | |

| bloominholes2fill | On May 23, 2018 | Miscellaneous Event Our winter weather extended in to early May, this year, and I'm afraid I lost one specimen completely, and the other is looking really scraggly.  I've noticed that ornamental grasses in commercial landscapes are struggling too, so my guess is this unusually cold Spring is the culprit. Hoping it will bounce back, this year.  |
