Japanese garden grass offers an elegant, serene touch to any landscape, making it a favourite choice among New Zealand gardeners seeking to add a sense of calm and flow to their outdoor spaces. Renowned for its graceful, cascading blades and lush texture, Japanese garden grass fits beautifully into a range of garden styles—from traditional Japanese courtyard settings to modern, naturalistic designs. Whether you're looking to soften the edges of a path, add gentle movement under trees, or create low-maintenance groundcover, Japanese garden grass is an excellent option to consider.

Imperata 'Red Baron', commonly known as Japanese Blood Grass, features leaves that are green at the base and become red further up the blade. Through summer and autumn, the red colouring intensifies such that the foliage appears to be glowing. It grows as a clump to about 45 cm tall and the same wide. Japanese Blood Grass is commonly used in borders or mixed plantings, included in rock gardens, maintained in a container, or mass planted for an impressive display. This plant is popular with landscape designers and experienced gardeners due to its sheer beauty.

Miscanthus sinensis is an ornamental grass that grows as a clump of narrow, arching, green leaves. The colouring gives a light silver-green effect to the foliage, hence the common name, Japanese Silver Grass. Tall spikes of plum-like flowers are borne in summer, which are cream with a pink tone as they grow to 1.5 m tall and 1 m wide. Miscanthus sinensis is commonly included in mixed plantings, planted around a water feature, used as a backdrop for other plants, or included in borders.
