Sesleria autumnalis is a compact, elegant ornamental grass with fresh green, fine foliage forming dense clumps, which turn beautiful golden-brown in autumn. This hardy grass is ideal for rock gardens, borders and naturalistic garden designs, where it adds structure, color and movement. Sesleria autumnalis thrives best in sunny to lightly shaded positions in well-drained soil, and is low-maintenance and drought-tolerant.
Please note: Plants are living products and may vary from photos and descriptions. Minor imperfections may occur but usually recover once planted in your garden. Our plants are strong and supplied in nursery pots, directly from our partner growers.
