This variant of Imperata cylindrica, commonly referred to as 'Rubra' or Red Baron, forms an upright clump that reaches a height of 1-2 feet. During the spring, its leaves emerge a medium green color, but eventually change to a striking red at the tips. As the seasons progress, the red hue intensifies and spreads throughout the entire length of the leaf, with the upper portion showcasing a brilliant crimson color. It is a stunning addition to any garden border and typically does not produce flowers. During the colder months, it turns a light straw color and should be annually trimmed to the ground. This species spreads slowly through underground runners and is highly valued as an ornamental grass.
