This native grass is a kaleidoscope of colors throughout its long season- beginning in August and lasting through February. Pin straight, upright, slender blue-green leaves containing purplish-bronze racemes. Iconic, outstanding bronze-orange color emerges come fall, followed by puffy white seed heads in the winter. Truly an eye-catcher for multiple seasons!
