CSS Grid span but same height as a cell

I want to have a css grid as follows.

A 1 2 3
4 5 6
7 8

A is like the header and numbers (1 to 8) are data that comes from an API. I want to have A as the same height as numbers so I cannot use grid-row: 1/-1. I don't want to add an empty cell in every 4th item because I'm using AlpineJS x-for and it only supports only one child element.

body {
  max-width: 1280px;
  margin: 2rem auto;
}

.tier-grid {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: repeat(4, minmax(0, 1fr));
  gap: 1rem;
}

.card {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  align-items: center;
  background-color: #F1F1F1;
  border-radius: 0.2rem;
  padding: 2rem 1rem;
}

.card button {
  margin-top: auto;
}

.btn {
  cursor: pointer;
  font-size: 1rem;
  border: none;
  padding: 0.5rem 2rem;
}

.btn:hover {
  opacity: 0.8;
}

.btn-primary {
  background: #6944CE;
  color: white;
  border-radius: 1rem;
}

.info {
  border-radius: 0.2rem;
  overflow: hidden;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
}

.info p {
  margin: auto;
}

.info-footer {
  margin-top: auto;
  background: #6944CE;
  color: white;
  padding: 1rem;
  text-align: center;
}
<div class="tier-grid">
    <div class="card">

What about something like this:

.info:nth-child(3n) {
  border: 3px solid red;
  grid-column: 3;
}

.info:nth-child(3n+1) {
  border: 3px solid blue;
  grid-column: 4;
}

.info:nth-child(3n+2) {
  border: 3px solid green;
  grid-column: 2;
}

This will allow you to place the info items on your desired column without needing to add any extra "dummy" content element for the "empty cells"

body {
  max-width: 1280px;
  margin: 2rem auto;
}

.tier-grid {
  display: grid;
  grid-template-columns: repeat(4, minmax(0, 1fr));
  gap: 1rem;
}

.card {
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
  align-items: center;
  background-color: #F1F1F1;
  border-radius: 0.2rem;
  padding: 2rem 1rem;
}

.card button {
  margin-top: auto;
}

.btn {
  cursor: pointer;
  font-size: 1rem;
  border: none;
  padding: 0.5rem 2rem;
}

.btn:hover {
  opacity: 0.8;
}

.btn-primary {
  background: #6944CE;
  color: white;
  border-radius: 1rem;
}

.info {
  border-radius: 0.2rem;
  overflow: hidden;
  display: flex;
  flex-direction: column;
}

.info:nth-child(3n) {
  border: 3px solid red;
  grid-column: 3;
}

.info:nth-child(3n+1) {
  border: 3px solid blue;
  grid-column: 4;
}

.info:nth-child(3n+2) {
  border: 3px solid green;
  grid-column: 2;
}

.info p {
  margin: auto;
}

.info-footer {
  margin-top: auto;
  background: #6944CE;
  color: white;
  padding: 1rem;
  text-align: center;
}
<div class="tier-grid">

Does adding

.card {
    ...
    grid-row: 1 / span 3;
}

get what you want? I'm trying to see if you can make this dynamic and just fill all the columns instead of specifying how many you have but I want to check first if this is in the right direction.
