Lemon Zest Japanese Forest Grass
Lemon Zest Japanese Forest Grass (Hakonechloa macra 'Lemon Zest') is a dazzling ornamental grass prized for its vibrant golden-yellow foliage and graceful, cascading habit. This stunning grass typically forms dense mounds of arching leaves that emerge bright chartreuse in spring, intensifying to a sunny lemon-yellow as the season progresses, and then transitioning to hues of gold and orange in the fall. Lemon Zest Japanese Forest Grass is an excellent choice for adding color and texture to shaded areas in the garden, such as woodland borders, rock gardens, or containers. Hardy in USDA zones 5-9, this low-maintenance grass thrives in partial to full shade and moist, well-drained soil. With its striking foliage, graceful form, and adaptability to shade, Lemon Zest Japanese Forest Grass adds brightness and visual interest to shaded gardens, creating a luminous and welcoming atmosphere.
