Hakonechloa macra 'Aureola', commonly known as Golden Japanese Forest Grass, is a striking ornamental grass prized for its vibrant foliage and graceful, cascading habit. This cultivar forms cascading mounds of arching leaves that emerge green with yellow stripes in spring and mature to a brilliant golden-yellow hue as the season progresses.

With its striking foliage and graceful form, Golden Japanese Forest Grass 'Aureola' adds a touch of elegance and visual interest to any landscape.
