 Arundo donax 'Variegata'

Striped Giant Reed

Zone: 6 - 10

Size: 12" Tall x 6" Wide

Bloom Time: August

Features: We think a better common name is chameleon grass due to the color change throughout the season. In early spring it emerges almost totally white with narrow green variegation. As the season progresses, the green variegation begins to overtake the white. By late fall it's almost solid green. Makes an excellent focal point in the garden and is especially striking when combined with bronze fennel. Spreads slowly by underground rhizomes. Cut plants back to encourage new variegated foliage.  Deer Resistant
