About this plant
Breathe life and light into shady corners of your garden with Hakonechloa macra 'All Gold', a premium selection of Japanese Forest Grass. Its striking, arching stems cascade beautifully, forming a dense, golden mound that adds brilliant texture and movement to borders, containers, or woodland settings. 'All Gold' maintains its radiant color throughout the growing season, turning to a warm bronze in autumn, providing year-round interest. This slow-growing, low-maintenance grass is a sophisticated choice for gardeners seeking to introduce a touch of refined elegance. Perfect for softening hardscape edges or underplanting taller shrubs, its luxurious foliage creates a serene, harmonious feel in any garden design. 'A Cut Above' recommends massing for a dramatic effect or using as a luminous accent.
Care & maintenance
Easily grown in moist, well-drained soil. Prefers partial to full shade. Protect from hot afternoon sun to prevent leaf scorch. Requires minimal pruning; simply cut back dead foliage in early spring before new growth emerges. Deer resistant and generally pest-free.
