Tiger Grass is a perennial grass with culms (stout woody ringed stems), lance-shaped leaves and fine plumes of purple flowers. Tiger Grass is a fast-growing alternative to bamboo, producing long slender canes and large leaves. It does not produce side shoots or invasive runners like true bamboo. Ideal for mass planted for screening and a wall of vibrant green foliage. Suitable for large containers.
