An upright, narrow silhouette sets Dream Catcher® Lightning Bolt® apart in the landscape. Silvery plumes rise above the foliage in mid to late summer, putting on a showy summer-long display. Come fall, the foliage transitions to a rich golden yellow for added seasonal interest. Fast growing and drought tolerant, it's a strong choice for erosion control, meadow plantings, or rain gardens alike.
