From the Garden of Delaware Valley's legendary Bill Frederick (and named after his gardener Paul Skibinsky), comes this unique fountain grass with particularly tall plumes 4' and a clear division between the plumes and the foliage. After cutting the grass to the ground in early spring, the foliage quickly regrows to 18". In late summer thru fall, the clumps are topped with tan/bronze colored plumes on 4' stalks...superb for border use. fnd in ditch in hokessin, De
