Plant description

This deciduous ornamental grass is renowned for its steely coloured foliage, which forms a stiff, upright clump. The pink flowers, which appear in late summer and early autumn, add an airy elegance, and tone beautifully with the grey/blue to purple/blue foliage (which turns a soft yellow in autumn before dying back). 'Heavy Metal' is perfect for providing vertical interest in a naturalised setting, and it's a sought-after addition to 'new perennialplanting schemes.
