Festuca Sunrise A lovely, deep green grass which turns the colours of sunrise in winter, Festuca glauca Sunrise is a small, hardy evergreen grass with a tuft-forming habit. The narrow, airy, deep green leaves turn orange-red in late autumn and winter. In summer, the flowers and flower stems are orange-red. Needs minimal pruning, but you can comb out dead leaves in spring. Generally a low-maintenance plant, although it can be short-lived in heavy, rich soil. Festuca Sunrise does well in a pot, and can also be planted en masse for a contemporary planting.
