CHIONOCHLOA rubra – NZ Native Red Tussock

Product Details

NZ Native Red Tussock

This satisfyingly semi-spherical long grass tussock hides grass-green colours behind copper tinged leaves. The effect is both dramatic and orderly. Known to last and be relatively maintenance free, the red tussock keeps a clean and precise look, making it well suited to marking out borders and creating a visual fence between walkways and landscapes. This hardy native thrives in cold coastal conditions, where  it will reach a compact 1m x 1m.

Suitable for: Borders, hedging and group planting.

Features: Cold and coastal hardy, red-tinged foliage.

Botanical Name: CHIONOCHLOA rubra.
