Hakonechloa macra (Japanese Forest Grass)
Dense clumps of arching stems, with brilliant chartreuse leaves in cascading layers resemble dwarf bamboo. Hidden among the foliage are tiny delicate green flower heads. The foliage turns to an attractive copper-orange shade as the weather cools. Slow growth rate.
