( ??? )
At-A-Glance InformationAlso called Natal Ruby Grass, this species of perennial grasses needs full sun and regular water. They do well in zones 2b-24, H1 and H2, but can be grown anywhere as an annual planting. They are native to Africa, and have narrow blue-green leaves and stems topped with clusters of airy red flowers that age to pink and tan. These grasses can and will reseed, and can become a harmless weed. Variety 'Pink Crystals' blooms in late summer and has winter hardiness.
