The photo of the Dichromena colorata “Star Grass” is lovely. I managed to get hold of 2 plants of this this year, after a 2 year search which included contacting a firm in Scotland!!
I plan to plant it in your gold/red flying saucer next year.
A tip for growing ‘White Star Grass’ is that it needs heat to get it going in the UK. I keep it in the conservatory until either mid June, or when they are really moving well. Then you can move them outdoors for the rest of the year.
You can divide in the spring, but wait till they are growing for best results.
Don’t forget PLENTY PLENTY water!!
Enjoy,
Loy.
Could I have the botanical name of White Star Grass, please Big A.
‘Dichromena colorata’ I believe is the most commonly used botanical name for this plant
