A distinctive-looking perennial with slender, arching stems carrying sprays of bell-shaped, deep wine-red flowers, which dangle above clumps of grass-like, evergreen leaves in mid-to-late summer. The stems look delicate, but are actually very tough and appear to tremble in the breeze. Angel's fishing rod is perfect for introducing movement to a well-drained border in a sunny, sheltered site, orfor overhanging water. Initially slow to establish, it looks particularly good with early autumn-flowering ornamental grasses and gravel gardens.
Garden care: Water freely during the growing season, but avoid excessive winter wet. Cut away old foliage in early spring and if necessary lift and divide congested colonies at the same time.
