Flame Grass is a herbaceous ornamental grass that exhibits stunning gray-green blades in summer and brilliant red-orange in the fall. Beautiful, eye catching color lasts through the winter. Mauve-colored feathery plumes rise above the foliage and mature to white. Best color in full sun and moist well-drained soil.
