Hakonechloa macra Albostriata

Hakonechloa macra Albostriata care guide

Hakonechloa macra ‘Albostriata’ is a refined ornamental grass prized for its cascading foliage marked with fine white stripes. It grows best in partial to full shade, where its soft texture and variegated colouring shine without risk of sun scorch. This grass prefers moist, well-draining, humus-rich soil, and consistent moisture during dry spells—especially in summer—is key to keeping it vibrant. In New Zealand gardens, it performs beautifully in woodland settings, shaded borders, or as an underplanting for trees and shrubs. It’s a slow-growing, clump-forming perennial that stays compact and tidy. In late winter or early spring, trim back the previous year’s foliage to encourage healthy new growth. The plant is frost-hardy, generally pest-free, and its leaves may take on soft pink tones in cooler weather, adding seasonal interest. It also works well in containers for shaded patios.
