Blood Grass - Imperata cylindrica 'Rubra'

Blood grass is a low growing deciduous grass with an upright habit that can grow up to 1 ft tall. The vertical leaf blades emerge a lime-green color in spring with a hint of red at the tips.

As the season progresses a cranberry-red color progressively works down towards the leaf base. Use in mass in moist well drained soils in full sun to light shade. It is also very attractive as a container plant specimen.
