Pennisetum alopecuroides '24K Gold' is a compact fountain grass that brightens any space with its vibrant foliage. New growth emerges in brilliant gold tones, maturing through warm lemon hues to soft green. Graceful bottlebrush plumes rise above the arching leaves, creating delicate movement and texture.
Ideal for containers, borders, accent plantings, and smaller garden areas. Thrives in full sun with well-drained, average soil. Water regularly during establishment and dry periods to keep soil consistently moist. A striking choice for adding year-round colour and architectural interest to your landscape.
