Arundo donax variegata

Arundo donax variegata is a tall grass with wide leaves often 2 to 3 inches wide. It is often considered a great substitute for bamboo. Once mature plants can reach 10 to 15 feet with a large showy bloom at the end of summer usually held several feet above the foliage. This form emerges almost totally white in spring and as summer progresses becomes more lime green to yellow and fades to a light green by very late summer. Plants can grow in soil to bog situations and will form a large clump with age. A great addition for people wanting a tropical look in cooler climates. Plants can handle zone 5 and higher. Plants sold in 3 to 4 inch pots.
