This simple, foliage-driven planting combination of Hakonechloa macra 'Aureola', Cryptomeria japonica 'Little Diamond' and the ground-hugging bronze foliage of the dwarf rock lily (Arthropodium candidum 'Maculatum') is very easy care. The trio looks great from spring to fall while the dwarf conifer holds down the fort in winter.
