('productnameshort')

Description:
Hakonechloa 'Nicolas' is an all green cultivar that colours up quickly in the summer and fall with constantly deepening shades of orange, burgundy and red.

Try combining with darker foliage like burgundy heucheras for a WOW! effect in your shade garden. Photo courtesy of Walters Gardens.
