Plant Profile
Sesleria autumnalis – Autumn Moor Grass
Light up borders with fresh yellow-green foliage and soft, silvery flower spikes.
Sesleria autumnalis is a cool-season ornamental grass valued for its bright foliage and softly mounding habit. Narrow, yellow-green leaves create a fresh-looking backdrop for flowering perennials, while slender stems carry pale flower spikes above the clumps in late summer and fall. Autumn Moor Grass works beautifully in repeated drifts, along pathways, or as a low, textural layer beneath larger plants. Its foliage remains evergreen to semi-evergreen depending on winter conditions.
