Re: Stipa arundinacea

Susan,
This beautiful grass is also known as Anemathale lessoniana and is a Great Plant Pick for 2002 (Great Plant Picks is a a program that, on a yearly basis, evaluates and identifies great garden worthy plants for the Pacific Northwest.)  They are listing it as 3 feet high, 4 feet across.  Hardy USDA 7-9.
Mine isn't that big- first year from a one gallon container- but the color is beautiful.

I realize these were taken in northern California, but the plant looks to be 3-5' tall in the pictures.  On line sources says 2 x 2.  Has anyone grown this?  I'm wondering how big it could get in Oregon or how hardy it is.
