Bronze Grass

Grass type: Perennial (Stores water in the thickened base of its stem)

This large, emerald grass grows up to 5 feet (1.5 meters) tall. The finger-like stalks grow in thin clumps that are light and frail.

When mature, the end of the stem eventually transforms into a tiny, bronze puff.

During the early autumn, it produces very little pollen, and after flowering, it is left with excessive amounts of small grains.

It comes in 33 varieties.
The colour changes depends on whether the soil is acidic or alkaline.
It is suitable for making paper
It is almost impossible to grow indoors.
