Imperata cylindrica 'Red Baron'

Japanese Blood Grass, aka 'Red Baron' is at home in the sun as well as in shadier garden spots. Red Baron's leaves are red on top but remain green below, and add a striking visual effect to container planters, hanging baskets, and the back row of borders. Wait to cut back old foliage until early spring before new growth emerges.
