Description

Meet our fabulous compact clumping plant, perfect for adding some sparkle to your balcony or courtyard! This beautiful plant boasts bright silver grass-like foliage and stunning golden yellow flowers that bloom through spring. We love it in borders, too - its unique shape adds a great pop of interest. Plus, it's super easy to care for - just trim back those old flower stems and leaves after they've finished blooming, and you're good to go!
