Imperata cylindrica Red Baron

Price £ 14.99

Short description

Imperata cylindrica ‘Red Baron’, also known as Japanese Blood Grass, is a striking deciduous ornamental grass with upright green blades tipped in deep red. As the season progresses, the red intensifies and spreads further down the leaf, creating a fiery display in late summer and autumn. It adds bold colour and texture to borders, gravel gardens, or containers.

This grass typically reaches around 40–50cm in height and spreads to about 30–40cm, forming tidy clumps over time without becoming invasive. Thrives in full sun to partial shade and prefers moist but well-drained soil. Will tolerate most soil types, including clay, provided it's not waterlogged. Cut back old foliage in early spring before new growth emerges. Divide clumps every few years to maintain vigour. Mulch in spring and water during prolonged dry periods to keep the plant looking its best.
