Flame Grass is a bold plume of coral-pink flowers that will rise above the foliage in late summer. The silver seed heads are carried on showy plumes displayed in abundance from early fall to late winter. Its grassy leaves are green, turning a gorgeous coppery-bronze in the fall. The red brick stems are very colorful and add to the overall interest of the plant.

Flame Grass is a perennial grass with an upright spreading habit of growth. Its medium texture blends into the garden but can always be balanced by a couple of finer or coarser plants for an effective composition. This plant will require occasional maintenance and upkeep and is best cleaned up in early spring before it resumes active growth for the season. It has no significant negative characteristics, making it perfect for any garden.
