So named for its deep red panicles, this lovely ornamental grass begins as a very round clump of blue green foliage about 25cm (10") wide. Then, in mid-summer, the flowering stalks begin to appear, starting red, but fading to pink and then to creamy silver at maturity. By the middle of August, all the colours are present, with some flower stalks as tall as 90cm (36"). The plant can be grown as a perennial in warmer areas (Zones 8-10), but in cooler zones it should be thought of as an annual. It looks spectacular in nearly any garden setting, in large containers, and in rock gardens. Ruby Grass is drought tolerant, but thrives in moist, well drained soil in full sun to partial shade. It can be grown beneath/near Black Walnut, and is tolerant of pollution.
