Everyone who has grown Ornamental Grasses knows that Zebra and Porcupine Grasses are incredibly showy in the summer with their yellow banded foliage. ‘Super Stripe’ lives up to its name by “out striping” the others with enough yellow banded color to make these plants jump to the forefront in any landscape. Lush, deep green foliage slowly emerges in the spring with growth momentum and signature yellow bands emerging quicker as late spring heat builds, forming an upright, spreading mound that demands to be seen. Tall flower stalks rise 2-3′ above the colorful foliage in August to reveal tawny, fine textured seed heads that dance in the wind from late August through October. ‘Super Stripe’ loves full sun and is an amazing sight when grouped toward the back of a planting.
