    DESCRIPTION

    Northern Lights, Deschampsia 'Northern Lights', is a low growing ornamental grass with variegated foliage. Its affinity for medium to wet soil conditions and strong root structure makes it extremely desirable for stream banks and rock gardens. The dramatic foliage and summer blooms of Deschampsia 'Northern Lights' provide a long season of color and texture. Being native to Northern America, this species is also wonderfully used in borders to define a naturalistic or prairie-like setting.

    SHIPPING DETAILS

    Shipping Methods

    Orders will be shipped via FedEx Home Delivery.

    Orders are generally in route for 2-5 business days (depending on where you live).

     

    We are sticklers about packaging and shipping your order in a way that guarantees healthy plants upon arrival. If plants are damaged on arrival, just let us know and we'll send you new ones or offer a full refund.

     

    All of our plants are container grown and shipped with the soil and roots fully intact. We DO NOT ship your plants bare-root. Being shipped as a containered plant greatly reduces the risk of the plant not surviving the transit to your home.

    Everything was good!

    Followed directions for holding and planting and 2 weeks later they look great in my planter box.

    Northern lights grass.

    They look dead. I planted them second day after they were delivered. Followed instructions upon them delivered. Set out second day. I checked them today and the grass blades are easily pulled off. Hoping they make it. All three look like straw.

    Just emailed you! Feel free to reach out with any concerns at hello@thegreenhousepnw.com

    Northern lights grass

    Not sure if it’s alive or not. It seems to be, but it also looks dormant (straw color). And hasn’t grown in size since I planted it

    Looks dead!

    They were a combination of brown and green when they arrived almost a month ago. Now they're more brown than green. I'm not sure they're going to make it!

    Hi Mary,
    Just emailed you! Thanks for reaching out :) Talk soon!

    Arrived in great condition (as usual). Thriving even though we have been getting way too much rain in NE Ohio. The color is fantastic.

    Great looking ornamental grass

    The size and condition of this plant when it arrived was fantastic. It has adapted to my garden so well because of it.
