Anemanthele lessoniana – Vibrant New Zealand Native Grass for Dynamic Landscapes
Anemanthele lessoniana, also known as Pheasant's Tail Grass or New Zealand Wind Grass, is a graceful, clump-forming ornamental grass native to New Zealand. It features slender, arching foliage that emerges green and transforms into a striking blend of copper, orange, and gold hues, particularly in autumn and winter. This semi-evergreen grass produces airy, reddish-brown flower panicles in late summer, adding movement and texture to garden spaces. Reaching up to 1 metre in height and spreading approximately 1.5 metres, Anemanthele lessoniana thrives in well-drained soils and adapts to a range of light conditions, from full sun to partial shade. Its low maintenance requirements and year-round interest make it an excellent choice for borders, mass plantings, containers, and naturalistic landscapes.
Kikuyu Seed
Kikuyu grass is suited to warmer regions and coastal areas where hot and humid summers are less well suited to other turf species. The variety of Kikuyu seed sold by The Plant Company is Regal Green which produces a carpet of lush green leaves and tolerates both summer drought and high humidity. It may brown off during winter as it goes dormant, but this is generally only for a short period. The ideal mowing height is 25 mm and seeding rate is 10 grams per square metre. Using less Kikuyu seed than this and weed intrusion can become problematic. Kikuyu lawns are well suited to regions from Waikato north and this product is 100% pure Kikuyu seed.
