Description
A wonderful introduction by Ernst Pagels, 'Graziella' has very similar attributes of 'Gracillimus,' although more upright and arching. Its green foliage is fine and narrow with very attractive blooms held high above the foliage. These blooms open early (in August), making 'Graziella' an excellent selection for northern growers. Foliage turns reddish-orange in fall. Overall, a very beautiful and graceful plant. Prefers well-draining soil.
