A rather attractive yet undemanding grass. Medium sized clumps up to 60 cm tall in an attractive orange/bronze colour, followed in the late summer/autumn by reddish tinged arching seed heads. Prefers a sunny well drained site where it will add a touch of class to the grass bed. Excellent for containers.
