Golden Dew (Deschampsia cespitosa 'Goldtau')
In this Soto Masterclass Max highlights the key characteristics of Golden Dew, otherwise known as Deschampsia cespitosa 'Goldtau'.
Golden Dew loves to be in full sun and part shade. ‘Goldtau’ brings magical movement to a garden. In this guide, Max suggests leaving the grass over winter to have form and structure during the season and then cutting back to the base in the spring.
