Variety description

10 August 2026

Perennial deciduous ornamental grass forming compact clumps with upright stems. The leaves are narrow, linear, with a distinct white central stripe, turning a yellowish hue in late autumn.

Inflorescences in the form of upright panicles have a pink "satin" hue when blooming, which eventually changes to copper-brown and then to silvery-white. The flowering period occurs in September–October.

The plant has vigorous growth and a high degree of winter hardiness. It is used in landscape design for decorating flower beds, borders, and cultivation in containers.
