Cortaderia 'Citaro' 5 ltr

Cortaderia ‘Citaro’ is a striking evergreen ornamental grass valued for its tall, architectural habit and impressive feathery flower plumes. It forms a dense clump of narrow, arching green leaves, above which large creamy-white to silvery flower heads rise from late summer into autumn. The elegant plumes remain attractive well into winter and can also be cut and dried for indoor arrangements. Ideal as a dramatic specimen plant or for adding height and movement to larger borders, ‘Citaro’ performs best in a sunny position with free-draining soil.
