Aureola Hakone Grass (Hakonechloa macra ‘Aureola’) is a graceful, low-growing ornamental grass known for its cascading form and bright golden variegated foliage. It adds softness and movement to shaded areas where most grasses struggle.
Growing 12–18 inches tall, it forms flowing mounds that work beautifully along borders, walkways, and in woodland or shade gardens. Its color brightens darker spaces and pairs well with hostas and other shade plants.
Best Uses: shade gardens, borders, edging, woodland plantings
Why Choose Aureola Hakone Grass: – Thrives in partial to full shade – Bright golden variegated foliage – Soft, cascading growth habit – Excellent for adding contrast in shaded areas
Why Add Ornamental Grasses to Your Landscape?
Low Maintenance Performance: Most ornamental grasses require minimal pruning and thrive with little upkeep once established.
Movement & Texture: Flowing blades and feathery plumes create dynamic visual interest that changes with light and wind.
Four-Season Appeal: From summer greenery to fall plumes and winter structure, grasses provide year-round landscape impact.
Not only was the hard-to-find honeysuckle plant I wanted beautifully healthy, but Chris made the extra effort to choose the healthiest plant of those available AND gently disentangle the vines from one another, give me a cart-ride back to my car and carefully load my prize find into my car. I will definitely look here for future plants. Many thanks!
