Description
This beautiful grass with nonchalant plumes brings a copper glow to the garden and patio which fits seamlessly with the autumn and sets your whole view on fire.The russet leaves of Uncinia rubra are quite narrow. However, the plant has a lot of foliage that grows in a casual full clump. It curls slightly at the ends, bringing a unique and lively colour accent to the garden. The colour is most prominent in the summer thanks to the blooming of russet flower spikes. As autumn arrives, the rust-coloured grass announces the change of season. The plant retains its deep red colour through the winter months. Unicina rubra grows to a maximum height of 50 cm.
