    Nursery contributed plant descriptions

    The cultivar name is German for wind's game and this grass plays against the sky. Stretching far above mounding 15 in. high, verdant ribbonlike blades, supple stems entertain an aura of tiny copper-colored inflorescences. We position 'Windspiel' in the frontlines and plant bold perennials such as Helianthus 'Gold Lace' or Vernonia crinita behind to enjoy the subtle other worldliness that's created by looking through its blooms.
