Description
All Gold Japanese Forest Grass is a shade loving deciduous grass that forms dense cascading mounds of papery bright golden-yellow foliage. The summer yellow flower panicles are unnoticeable among the foliage. Grows best in part shade and moist well-drained soil. Can grow in full shade in the Deep South, or in full sun if soils consistently moist.
