This ornamental grass forms a midsized mound of arching leaves with variegated stripes of white, green, burgundy and hot pink running the length of the blade. Purple bottlebrush flowers appear in late summer and gradually age to tan colour. Plant as a specimen or in mass for a display of colour. Treat as an annual. Cut down or remove after hard frost.
