This ornamental grass is my favorite in our garden. In early spring the foliage is bright yellow/green at the base with red tips. In summer most of the foliage has become intense blood- red and in fall, like now in the sun, it becomes all kind of beautiful colours: yellow - green - pink - red -purple etc.. In Holland this ornamental grass will not produce flowers; it's probably too cold. But: who needs flowers when the blades are that beautiful red? It's growing in several flowerbeds as well in a sunny as in a shady place and the foliage is intense red everywhere. The plants make 'open' clumps which spread slowly underground by 'runners'. Overhere the foliage reaches a height of about 60 cm.
