Mauritania Vine Reed/Rope GrassAmpelodesmos
Ampelodesmos mauritanicus 
Hailing from the Mediterranean, this stately grass yields fine textured, evergreen blades tough enough to fashion ties, ropes and baskets, and large enough to make an imposing stand-alone specimen in your mixed border.
Lofty, upward and arching stems race skyward, asserting mostly one-sided pearl-colored panicles above a dark green clump-forming mound. While airy purple-flushed inflorescences invite birds and gardeners alike, the robust Rope Grass maintains its majestic composure throughout the winter, requiring a sheltered, sunny position with well drained soil.
Blooms July–November. Size: 9' high x 3'–4' wide; hardy to zone 8. AVAILABLE FALL 2013 Ampelodesmos mauritanicus (G-0479)
Each $7.00
