Golden Sunset Indian Grass is a warm-season native grass with widened olive green blades and sturdy flowering stems which turns deep gold in fall and maintains some color in winter. Panicles of feathery golden flowers rise high above the foliage on stems in late summer to fall which mature to copper and persists through winter.  Grows best in full sun and dry to medium well-drained soils. Drought tolerant once established.
