The Imperata cylindrica 'Rubra Red Baron', commonly known as the Japanese blood grass, is a type of deciduous grass that is known for its distinctive and attractive appearance. This particular variety forms a loosely gathered clump of erect, linear leaves that are predominantly green in colour. However, what sets it apart is the strong infusion of a deep, rich red colour that suffuses these leaves, giving it a striking and unique look. 

In addition to its vibrant leaves, the 'Rubra Red Baron' also produces narrow, silvery flower panicles. These delicate and beautiful floral structures typically appear in the late summer, adding another layer of visual interest to this already stunning plant. The combination of the deep red leaves and the silvery flower panicles creates a contrast that is both eye-catching and aesthetically pleasing, making the Imperata cylindrica 'Rubra Red Baron' a popular choice for many garden enthusiasts.

  • How To Grow

    For optimal growth and maintenance of your plants, it's crucial to ensure they are well watered, particularly if they are planted in containers. This is because containers can dry out faster than garden soil. 

    In terms of pruning, it's recommended to cut back the plants early in the year. This will help to promote new growth and maintain a neat and tidy appearance. 

    These plants are versatile and can be grown in a variety of settings. They are suitable for planting in a herbaceous border where they can add colour and texture. Alternatively, they can also be grown in containers, which allows for flexibility in positioning and can be ideal if space is limited.

    To enhance the visual appeal of your garden, consider surrounding the plants with pebbles or shale. This not only creates an attractive contrast with the greenery, but also helps to suppress weeds and retain soil moisture.
