This tall, subtropical perennial bears clusters of filmy, narrow, thread-like leaflets on stalks to 6-8' tall. This plant requires average to heavy watering, and must be protected from hard frost. It makes an outstanding container plant, and is striking when used with cut flowers. The plant should be grown in sun to part shade, an will tolerate standing water. -Monterey Bay Nursery
