I am a stunning fast growing New Zealand-native perennial tufting grass with fine pale greenish brown leaves with a silvery appearance.
When mass planted my curling habit and fine foliage moves to great effect in the slightest of breezes. I create an interesting and distinctive flowing texture in the garden. I also make a great “hair plant” when grown in a pot.
Very hardy I tolerate drought and frost.
