'Samurai' is an ornamental grass that makes a statement in a woodland garden with its graceful arching clumps and creamy white and green variegated leaves. Works well as a container plant. It grows best in moist, humus-rich soils in partial shade. The foliage should be cut down before the new growth begins in the spring. More information on Hakonechloa macra .
