Description

The cultivar name translates to “enduring ray” for the long lasting beauty this fine textured grass bestows upon the garden. Prancing above robust low growing tufts of emerald green foliage, stiff mostly upright divergent stems showcase elegant panicles with slim dark purple spikelets. Late in the season bright golden yellow hues transform its blades and flowering stalks. Blooms June – November. 3'–4' high x 2'–2-1/2' wide.
