Beautiful yellow-margined foliage with red-brown, feathery summer plumes that turn a rich gold color in fall. Creates a striking vertical effect in the landscape, as an accent or in a dramatic mass planting. Sterile seeds do not produce unwanted seedlings. A stunning addition to cut flower arrangements. Thrives in sunny, dry northern climates.
Foliage reaches 2 ft. tall and wide; bloom stalks reach 6 ft. tall.
Thrives in rich, moist soils, but highly adaptable. Best foliage and plumes in full sun; benefits from part shade in hottest summer climates. Water deeply, regularly during first growing season to establish an extensive root system; tolerates dry spells when established. Cut to the ground in late winter just before new shoots appear.
