This can be about half the size of the typical Pennisetum macrourum. Densely tufted perennial grass with flat, linear, dark green, which can stay evergreen over winter. Creamy-white narrow spires of flowers in later summer and autumn. If need be cut back the foliage in early spring to allow, fresh new shoots to cleanly emerge.
