Yalba™
Imperata cylindrica 'ICL200' 
Description
Yalba has reddish foliage in Autumn and Winter with green foliage in the warmer months. It is also an Australian native, unlike Japanese blood grass. Also unlike the Japanese blood grass, Yalba is very fast growing and spreads more rapidly than the common Australian form. It has an approx. 100cm spread.
Yalba is a compact form, only growing to 400mm in height.
Uses
Ideal for areas that need a quick native ground cover, such as median strips, roadsides, slopes and other mass planted areas.
Position
Full sun or part shade.
Care
Low to no maintenance. Not suited to garden planting. Use in sandy to heavy clay soils.
Great erosion control
Yalba has been proven to strengthen the soil 5.45 times, compared to the common form which strengthens the soil 4.94 times. Its deep rhizomes make it drought tough and its vigor helps it out-compete weeds.
