    Strikingly striped white and green, this smaller (to 14-18") shade-loving grass, which is rosy-pink in cool temperatures, will brighten up any dark corner; an easy and elegant shade groundcover. PSh-Sh/M PPAF

    This sport of Hakone Grass, introduced by Briggs Nursery, has a cleaner white striping than other white varieigated forms. Cooler tems will bring a pinkish cast to the foliage. Smaller and somewhat slower growing than other Hakonechloa selections at 14", it will slowly form expanding clumps of 2' or more. Most striking when planted en masse.

    A sparkling new introduction with a wide white variegation that pulls in pink and purple hues. Protect from too much direct sun.
