Also called the roadside orchid but correctly Arundina graminifolia, it evidently grows abundantly along the roadsides in South East Asia. It therefore likes a sunny position and flowers in all but the coolest months. It does need an occasional tidy up because the spent stems send out kiekies (that root easily) which muddle the clean, bamboo-like lines. I am planning a curved row of clumps in the courtyard.
