Desert Plains' has an improved habit, better flowering performance and great fall. The finely textured, narrow, green leaves form a beautiful upright vase-shaped clump. Beginning in midsummer, the tips of the foliage begin to turn deep red and the entire clump transitions to shades of orange and gold in fall. Showy five inch bottlebrush plumes held above the foliage emerge smoky purple and age to tan.
