Hakonechloa macra Aureola

Description

This is I think my favourite grass and if you could see my own garden you can see exactly why. It’s a magnificent, elegant grass with attractive golden yellow variegated ribbon like foliage that forms gradually spreading mounds of long lived refined cover in sun or some shade. It sometimes known as Japanese Forest Grass.

It’s flowers are small and stunning in pots. Brighter yellow in sun more lime yellow in part shade. Soil not too wet. Height 40cm-50cm. Deciduous so dies down in the winter but comes back so fresh looking in the Spring again.
