Sesleria autumnalis (Autumn Moor Grass)

Full sun-shade; average water. An evergreen clumping grass that forms neat pale green tussocks; 1-2ft tall and wide, from which emerge tight golden flower spikes in spring which fade gracefully through summer and fall. Blades are narrow and light green with scabrous margins. Tolerates a wide range of conditions - wet to dry, sun to shade. Frost hardy. A beautiful meadow grass that is well maintained and does not reseed in the garden.
