Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Perhaps our favorite Deschampsia here at the nursery, as it is a native selection, 'Susan's Choice' forms tidy mounds of rich green foliage 18-24 inches tall topped by golden masses of airy panicles held 3' above the foliage from February to December. Plants are equally stunning in sun or shade, in the ground or in containers, in clay or sandy soil, with regular or moderate water. Truly indispensible for California gardens! Hardy to 0°F.
