Hakonechloa macra 'Aureola' is a Japanese-style, ornamental grass that grows in a neat, arching mound when planted in sunlight or partial shade. Its narrow leaves are mostly yellow, giving it the name Golden Hakonechloa, but they are adorned with a thin, green stripe, adding further interest. In the autumn, the hardy plant's foliage turns a stunning orange-bronze colour before dying off due to its perennial nature. This Hakonechloa is ideally suited to gravel gardens or patio containers, but is sure to look equally good in an exotic garden or woodland setting. Height: 35cm (1'1). Spread: 40cm (1'3).
