Imperata Rubra (Japanese Blood Grass) is a striking ornamental grass known for its dramatic red tips that emerge in late summer and intensify as the season progresses. The grass forms a neat, clumping habit with slender green leaves that gradually change to red, creating a striking contrast against the backdrop of your garden. Perfect for adding bold colour and texture, Imperata Rubra is ideal for planting in garden beds, borders, or containers.

This hardy, low-maintenance grass thrives in sunny locations and adds movement to the landscape as the wind catches its delicate foliage. Japanese Blood Grass is also drought-tolerant once established, making it a great choice for dry, low-maintenance gardens.
