This is a living plant with naturally brown foliage, not dried or dead. The bronze to copper-pink leaves arch gracefully, forming neat mounds about 25–30 cm tall. It works beautifully as a backdrop for flowering plants, in borders, pots, and road medians, and is valued for its unique colour.

Care guide

  • Full sun to semi shade to shade Best foliage colour develops in bright light
  • Normal Needs well-drained soil
  • Plant in well-drained soil to avoid waterlogging. Water normally and allow the soil to dry slightly between watering. Very tolerant of heat and humidity, and relatively drought resistant once established. Low maintenance and ideal for landscaping use.
