DESCRIPTION

Golden Japanese Forest Grass (Hakonechloa macra 'Aureola') is living proof that great things come to those who wait. This medium-sized ornamental grass takes a few years to reach its mature size, but your landscape will be adorned with the most gorgeous sprays of variegated chartreuse leaves when it does. Plant Golden Japanese Forest Grass 'Aureola' in the shade where the variegated leaves will be more prominent, or place it in the sun where it will take on bright yellow hues. Either way, this versatile beauty makes a noteworthy accent plant wherever you decide it should go.

Golden Japanese Forest Grass

Absolutely beautiful!!! Packaging is great if only the postal service had not turned the box upside down.

Puny

Other reviewers indicated satisfaction with the size of the slow-growing Japanese grass, but didn't specify its actual size. That should've been a red flag. For what would cost a few dollars in a local nursery, I paid $30..... each...for 15 little weeds. They are pictured on this web site in full growth, but in reality, they are the size and appearance of a weed that pops up in your lawn overnight.

Hello Katherine,

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. I'm sending you an email right now. I'm sorry you weren't happy with the size of your plants. They are just coming out of dormancy and beginning to put on more growth for the season. They will fill out much more as things continue to warm. :) Our second photo in the plant listing but if you didn't see that I can imagine being alarmed if you expected a fully mature grass to be delivered. If there are any questions or concerns please reach out to us at hello@thegreenhousepnw.com and we are happy to help! :)
