Description
Creamy golden stripes cut across the blades of zebra grass horizontally. But there's more to this zebra than its stripes. The plant displays an arching form, and develops flower heads composed of tiny white blooms in summer. The flower heads become attractive seed heads (plumes) that lend significant visual interest to the landscape in fall and winter. In early fall, more and more of a golden coloration will start to creep into the leaves. By late fall, leaf color becomes more of a beige. This is a large, ornamental grass, attaining a height of up to 7 feet (measuring to the top of the plume; foliage will reach about 5 feet tall), with a spread of 3-5 feet.
NOTE: The watermark in the lower right corner of the image will not appear on the final print.
