Golden Tufted Hair Grass

Deschampsia

Tufted Hair Grass

Wispy seed heads stretch in airy fans above finely cut, deep green tufted foliage. By planting Deschampsia in drifts, with a dark or solid background, its delicate, hazy quality is put to best effect. Try this one waterside, in a woodland setting, or as an accent in the perennial bed. The 50 species in this genus are, or were, found primarily in temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere.

Deschampsia cespitosa ‘Goldgehänge’   

The bright golden veil of nodding straw-colored flowers surely inspired this Deschampsia’s cultivar name. Dense forest green tussocks anchor slightly pendulous stems draped with fine textured, ethereal that guarantee a glowing performance especially when massed and set against dark-leafed woodies like Parrotia persica.

Blooms July–December.

Size: 2'–3' high x 2' wide; hardy to zone 4.
