Plant details
A vigorous, strongly variegated grass with green and cream striped foliage which is tinged pink when young - this effect is most noticeable in late spring and early summer when most new growth occurs. Although it survives in drier situations, it grows best on moist to wet soil, making it ideal to grow in the boggy margin of a pond or in a damp border around one. It associates particularly well with pond-side plants such as astilbes, hostas, or candelabra primulas.
