    The green foliage grows to 3' before the plumes emerge in early summer. The feathery panicles to 4' create an effective cloud of bronze haze (residents of LA will appreciate the resemblance to smog)! Although you probably can't pronounce the name, you will love the 'patriotic' amber waves of grain effect created by using a mass of this grass.
